Craterchains APOD Bio Page

Welcome to my APOD Posters introductions page.
This is the Who, What, and Why I post at APOD, that some are curious about.

Hi, I'm "craterchains".

    My name is Mr. Norval L. Cunningham and I am 55 years old. As you can see by
my icon and user name I have found crater chains to be of some interest to me. I'm just
one of those guys that go kicking about the wilderness to see what I may come across. A
kind of explorer researcher, and it seems I have made a few new excursions into areas
that most have never thought about. Or, maybe, not at all, till now. Then again it could be
that some don't want a few things talked about.
    One fact that I will state very openly is that I am firmly convinced we are not alone in
this universe, or on this planet. What was once a fairy tale like belief, as though through
the eyes of a child, has become the greatest physical reality of fact that one could ever
hope for. Why? The Bible.
    I fought in the Viet Nam "conflict", but today I fight with different tools and tactics, a
vastly different kind of war. The information war. A war for truth. Some have called me
a crusader, others call me a warrior, some even call me a fool, and many other "names".
    I am of definite opinion, and what most would call faith, I call trust. Trust because I
have seen sufficient evidence to warrant that trust, and trust in what is to come. With all
that history, folklore, legends, mythology, and now modern technology has shown me, we
are definitely not alone, and never have been. The real key to understanding is modern
technology which allows comprehension of the signs in the heavens. Yes, those
mentioned in the bible. Although not the least bit religious I do accept the concept of the
Kingdom of the Heavens as the government of the galaxies, with a King. Therefor I will
not wave any flag of democracy as that would be in bad taste and probably piss off any
true King of the Galaxies. (He is rather jealous about loyalty, only, in a good way, I think.)
    Just another old hippie whiz kid that finally grew up. Had the telescopes, microscopes,
chemistry, electronics, mechanics labs, and most of it I scrounged or built myself. Have
greatly enjoyed all water activities and live in the rotten cold rainy pacific north west.
(winks) It was a beautiful sunset I just watched, what a shame not to see those because
of having to live underground as some are, and soon many more will be. It's just a
thought, but what if ET were real, and just like us there are some bad ones amongst the
good ones, and they were right here on the net, in forums just like this one. Think about
it.

What it all boils down to, is "Who do YOU want for a neighbor"?
I want someone I can trust with my kids, and cows.

Hope to demonstrate the qualities that make me human.
Norval
