And

Bob Tregilus (elaterite) in the U.S.A.Bob

Bob likes to think of himself as an academically augmented autodidactic polymath. However, he is not so egotistical as to suggest that there aren’t millions who are dazzlingly more erudite than himself, such as those who inspire him: Thomas Jefferson, Carl Sagan, Edward Abbey, Hypatia, Jeannette Rankin, Chief Joseph, Phillis Wheatly, Francis Bacon, Lao-Tzu, Issac Newton, John Locke, Louis Armstrong, Benjamin Franklin, Saul Alinsky, Samuel Clemens, and many others.

Nevertheless, Bob’s interests very widely–as well as wildly–and include nearly everything with the exception of sports (drag- and air-racing are OK though), screeching babies (they’re like fingernails on a blackboard), television (the plug in drug), mindless commercial pop culture [fill in the blank] (it kills brain cells faster than moonshine), and Brussels sprouts (they look tasty, but aren’t).

Mostly Bob is an amateur (sometimes professional) policy wonk and troublemaker in the areas of renewable energy, electric drive transportation, civil liberties, GNU/Linux, and economic justice.

When Bob isn’t podcasting you can find him on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, and at Feed-in Tariffs for Nevada (FIT4NV), the Electric Auto Association of Northern Nevada (EAANN), the Alliance for Renewable Energyabout.me, or tinkering in his machine shop, or creating real wealth (unlike the societal-leeches that infest Wall Street) by growing food in his garden. Bob also likes to play with Schrödinger “Ding” the supersymmetric quantum string theory kitty.
