In His Own Words
About him
I love culture and nature. I am inquisitive and tenacious, adventurous and conservative, uncomfortable with hypocrisy, jingoism, and blinkered egotism. I had academic research and teaching careers in Chemistry, Astronomy, Computer Science, and Ballroom Dancing. So here's the test to filter out gold-diggers and those who only read the first sentence: you must answer this to be shortlisted. What is the difference between the dances: Salsa and Samba?
About his ideal match
Seeking a lady who wants to dance where angels fear to tread, who can enjoy the limelight of exuberance, and the contemplation of silence, who wants a companion who will put her first, but who wants a hand to hold.
