Author: daav0
My name is David Perry. Daav0 is a nickname I picked up years ago when I worked in a record store. At the time I was a big fan of DEVO, and I guess I still am. All of my adult life has been engaged in educating people about the uses and abuses of technology. We are looking forward to a world that only science fiction has seen up to this point. Things will be different, and very much different. Old models will not apply. Let's get there together, and in one piece. Persevere. (someday I will blog about why all my posts end with the word persevere, but the meaning of it speaks for itself. Keep on keeping on, one foot in front of the other, be the journey, not the goal.) Peace Be With You
