I'm <strong>Bolo</strong>, although my parents christened me <em>Josef Thomas Burger</em> when I rolled from the ways.Call me<strong>bolo</strong>... everyone, including my parents, does!<p>I'm not quite sure who I am or what I do; here's the bestexplanation I've developed so far.In many ways the question <em>who is a person</em> is defined bywhat that person does. In my case, I'm a software engineer who develops semi-real-timeoperating systems and utilities.I've been doing that for the last 5 years.Before that, I was a BSD Kernel Hacker and Unix system Administrator.<p>I create things, and that's why I'm an <em>engineer</em>. <!-- There's a new breed of "engineer" out there, who thinks that theonly people who can be called "engineers" are those peoplewho have taken courses from a institution accredited by someorganization.That's not what an engineer is. -->An engineer applies science to the design and construction of "things",and that's what I do.You can't really call me a scientist, though I have aComputer Sciences degree.I'm more of ... a <em>Mad Scientist</em>!!!
