Hi! I'm Jeff, but most people around here know me as wheatpenny. (when I first started collecting coins back in the mid-70s, I used to order bulk lots of assorted US coins, and they were always overloaded with wheat pennies, and so before too long I accumulated several thousand of them). I'm the Senior Moderator here at Renderosity. I use Paint Shop Pro, Poser, Daz Studio, Shade, Bryce, Carrara, and a few others. I'm 61 and I live in York, Pennsylvania with my wife and 2 kids Cindy, and Jeff Jr - ages 37 and 34. I'm originally from California, but I left there in 1983 when I became a hobo, and met my wife quite by chance in 1984 when I stopped here (Pennsylvania) to spend the winter. I'm a dual US/Australian citizen. I speak English Spanish, German, and Esperanto and can read French, Portuguese, Russian, Ancient Greek, Anglo-Saxon, and Latin. I completed my PhD in Linguistics in 2007. I also have a BA in Spanish and an MA in Modern Languages. After several years of wandering thru various religions I have settled on Liberal Quakerism.

Very interesting! I remember reading an article about small-body physics and discovering the--at least theoretical--joys of throwing a baseball into orbit around a body a bit smaller than Phobos. I have yet to write anything along these lines, and yet I keep wanting to turn my focus to near-space, space stuff...and this inspires me to wanna do that even more. I really enjoyed this. More would be welcome.
