Tony Austin ... Trained in science and engineering, and still tend to approach life from a scientist's or engineer's viewpoint, but over the years have picked up broader skills in sales/marketing, journalism and other non-technical areas.

Joined IBM Australia in 1970, retired from IBM in 1995 (thus joining the IBM Quarter Century Club), then set myself up as a so-called independent consultant running my own company Asia/Pacific Computer Services. A melanoma intervened in 2013 -- "Very lucky you're still alive" I was told by one doctor -- so after dodging that bullet I decided to drop out of the rat race by closing the company and refocusing my life. ... If you're adding comments to this blog and expecting a reply, please take into account that I reside in the Melbourne, Australia time zone.
