Biography:

Ron has had considerable experience in both Mac and PC's and is the Technology Teacher Coordinator at Edison/Fareira High School. He became involved in the Philadelphia Area Computer Society (PACS) in 1980 and has been on the Board of Directors three times, the leader of the Computers in Education Special Interest Group (SIG) and editor the the newsletter (DATABUS) for ten years.

He's owned about 12 computers since 1980. Ron became interested in the y2k problem, and after hearing a "the sky is falling" presentation, felt driven to write a more down-to-Earth article that appeared in the DATABUS. He will present his latest discoveries about this potential problem at the September CCN Meeting.
