Hello ! from Ventura County, California

Post here once you join, and tell us about yourself so we have a clue who we are talking to.
Keep threads short here -- once you have something to say, there's a topic here somplace where it will fit -- and if not, let me know and I will make subforums as necessary. We want all of hard science and tech up here, and if something doesn't fit -- that's my fault and I will fix that for you. See the rules and tips in the parent forum, please.
Forum rules
This sub forum is for new menbers to announce themselves. Try not to create long threads here -- this is just for you to tell us who you are, and for us to say welcome. There are other forums to actually discuss real tech-science things here, and ask questions on. The idea hopefully is to have enough forums and subforums that nothing sci-tech related will be off-topic, there will be a place for it. If I missed something -- let me know, and I'll fix that.

Hello ! from Ventura County, California

I'm a field inspector for Bureau Veritas North America -- involved in 3rd party witnessing of industrial machinery factory acceptance tests, materials testing and verification, specifications and codes review, and project management.-- in the public utility/Oil & gas industries. Most of my involvement is acting as the eyes and ears for end-users in Dubai, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Brazil, India -- where the machinery is being manufactured here in California.

My background is in materials science and NDT ( Non-Destructive Testing), advanced sensors, vibration analysis, machine vision -- to name just a few.

I'm glad to be here on this forum, as I strongly believe in a "cross pollination" of ideas from a multitude of disciplines leads to better problem solving and creativity.

I may not be that active at first, until I get the hang of it.
