Went to VPI for 3 weeks, worked that school year at Arlington Hosp, went to UVA for 2.5 years, did not make 4 out of 250 cut as physics major so went to Capital Institute of Technology (BS Electronics). Grad in '68
Performed analytical assessments of electronics at: Naval Intelligence Support Center; Army Intelligence (Charlottesville); Defense Intelligence Agency; Army Concepts Analysis Agency; Office of the Secretary of Defense; NASA HQ; NASA Langley Research Ctr (Hampton, Va) and Goddard Space Ctr. Besides gov jobs, I Worked at several companies supporting the government. Had really neat jobs.
Divorced in 2011(....a life changing event....started a second life:....sold the rental business...selling the stuff I accumulated over 43 years....moved south to live at the foothills of Blue Ridge mountains west of Charlottesville, in Crozet, Virginia.
Expedia judged Crozet to be the most beautiful location in Va. Due to Jarman's Gap, Crozet is one of the windiest locations in the US....and the sunsets over the mountain tops are gorgeous-inspiring. Charlottesville is rated as the Top College town in America by Traveler's Today. America's happiest city by US National Bureau of Economic Research. Charlottesville is between Pantops and Afton mountains, both granite mountains with 65% quartz.
Spent the last 13 years researching what our soul is about ("got deeply spiritual.... rather than religious). Hope to publish "The Truth of Our Soul's Evolution" in the near future. Please read the books by Michael Newton ("Life in Between Lives") and you will have less fear of dying. Come and visit us. The phone number is 703-424-1118. Email is [email protected] Love to hear from you.
Got married to Susannah Hamel Barney on 12/30/2016. She is a retired nurse. We love each other. Dan

"Just discovered your product today while trying to locate classmates ahead of our 50th reunion in 2020. The fact that you did this in a noncommercial manner in a world where everything has a price tag deserves recognition and respect, in my view.
Thank you and good luck in all your endeavors."
