I am 46 years old. I graduated from George Washington University with a degree in History. I took 2 graduate seminars which I guess means that I specialised in 2 areas: US 19th Century Diplomatic History, US Social History. I have a bit of expertise in Coins, which I use as a key to understanding pre US Economic History mostly as it applies to Europe. My last attempt at Education was a life drawing course at the Art Students League in NYC, in the 1990s. Previous to giving up on formal education I studdied Law for several years part time in between studying Accounting and Computer Science, working as a canvasser against toxic waste, driving a Taxi in Cleveland Ohio, and being the driver and relief attendant for a retired executive. The only professional history I have done to date was in the field of Genealogy. John5Russell3Finley 06:24, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
