Technology is background to the story.
My main purpose in my stories, however, is to entertain and not proselytize or preach. If I do the latter two, then you need to tell me, and I need to fix it. I was either in the Navy, or worked for it for 20 years, and now am trying something different. I'm a friendly sort who is not interested in flame wars, but want to honestly and positively cooperate with all comers to write the best stories that I can, and help my fellow aspirants to do the same. I have two cats named Butterscotch and Licorice, and love computers and writing.
