I'm a non-scientist working in the field of astronomy for various NASA-funded missions and science data archives. My past lives including managing an internal technical communications team for EarthLink, writing feature articles for EarthLink's customer newsletter, and covering education and city government for a daily newspaper in suburban Los Angeles. I love to ask questions, especially when I meet people with experiences and interests that are different from mine (in other words, EVERYONE).
