Greetings,
I've read the FAQs but haven't found instructions regarding where to post introductions, or if they are required. My apologies if this is in the wrong location.
I've been happily married for 22½ years, we have dogs instead of hominid offspring, I've been a gadget geek since being on the AudioVisual staff in high school. Undergrad and grad work in Philosophy, Systematic Theology, and Communication Theory {w/in Speech Dept.} then a career as a Network Engineer.
My primary interest in illumination devices is as an adjunct tool to defensive firearms and, being moderately well informed regarding secondary weapons, techniques, strengths, and limitations, I appreciate the opportunity to benefit from illumination hounds conversant in the fine details of various technologies, manufacturers, and imminent product development. From the limited exposure to CPF I've had thus far, I've been pleasantly impressed by the collegial attitude and the emphasis on technology and products rather than the pathological, vindictive, religious fanaticism that so often characterizes enthusiast forums of any topic.
I'm looking forward to picking up data, information, and first hand experience from the forum members. Due to a decision when we built our house to stop chasing education and our respective careers, a side tracked career has ended up permanently derailed. Thus, with a lifelong fiscal perspective of "Buy Well. Buy Once.", and precious little discretionary income, making well considered decisions is as important as ever.

Because it would be a bad thing if you got hooked and she gave it a no-go. I think some of the members here have that issue. LOL
