Interested in some help learning to memorize poems? I prepared some examples and software to enable you to adapt it to your own favorite poem.
Iceland! An amazing trip. A few fabulous slides.
A libertarian socialist engineer's proposal to solve the financial crisis: Let me know what you think.
I've been wondering if Tar Sands would save life as we know it today.
I've prepared a tutorial on the basic algebra behind oil crisis extrapolations.

My retirement party in Alaska, your invitation. It was great fun!
My retirement party in Alaska, the final program
On the occasion of my retirement, my speech to local staff
Apple's iPhoto, I abandon with prejudice
In the interest of optimally compartmenting the School of Earth Science, I gave out a questionairre to members of the Stanford Earth Science Faculty to identify colleagues closest to them in curriculum. Results were input to a "banquet seating" optimization program.
Here is How the Iraqi's can end their civil war. I've written it in basic English, easily translated.
Here is my tease for theoretical seismologists.
I tried google made-web pages. Here it is.
I've started on a history of reproducible research.
I've written a book review on a book by Mathew R. Simmons about the decline of Saudi Oil fields.
Bob Clapp and I have been examining the Miyagi earthquake.
Students and I struggled with data from a depth sounding survey of the biblical Sea of Galilee. It's gratifying to learn our result .jpg makes a genuine contribution.
Quite by accident I took some nice pictures of Sea Dragons, and another at the Monterey aquarium.
Garry Clarke came visiting with some fabulous pictures of the Donjuk Glacier. I got him started on a picture web site. Enjoy!
I prepared my first power-point talk explaining our research to some Petroleum Engineers.
Graduation pictures from 6/2004.
Noontime rainbows? See my sun dog pictures.
I purchased a Belkin microphone to attach to my iPod. The results are lousy! Here is an example. Don't purchase a Belkin microphone for your iPod!
This is a quicktime movie that I made linking astronomy to seismology. (13 min, 40Mb)
This is a quicktime movie of people having fun at the last SEP meeting. (8min, 20Mb)
I'm working on presenting pictures of Cecil Green's trips to Arabia.
I enjoyed a small journey with the Crustal Group.
I'm trying to recover a rare seismic data set.
Ever wondered about acoustic daylight imaging? Here is a quick introduction .
This picture explains (fantastic!) the relation between 1-D and 2-D filtering. To filter, you screw the filter onto the data. Convolution in 1-D does convolution in 2-D. Deconvolution in 1-D does deconvolution in 2-D. Likewise for spectral factorization, etc. Makes a great preconditioner for inversion. Rapidly solves [1+Dxx+Dyy]u=v. The entire "Helix" paper (16 pages of .ps) or html.

Care to join in building a large geophone array? I have lined up $50,000 to start.
After dinner speech: Seventeen years of supercomputing and other problems.
Publications or report articles (full text) or How to write an introduction.
In my youth, I puttered with earthquake and nuclear explosion data, but then I found reflection seismology was more fun because the theory more often works. Not to say that the earthquake people do not make interesting discoveries. [ link, ]
