Hi folks, I'm a retired Nuclear Power Plant worker and worked at over 30 US nuclear plants as a contractor for over 25 years.
During that time I participated in over 75 refueling outages doing maintenance (valve repair).
I'm an American and I live in Elko, Nevada USA.
I've been using linux since the early Ubuntu days (2005).
I have Mint 10 installed on a USB external drive.
My interests include firearms (mostly handguns) and computers.
