I am a Criminal Psychologist and work in two different areas. I work for Child Protective Services responding to reports of abuse and neglect on children. I also counsel individuals that have been remanded to the state under the Baker Act and Marchman act; which basically state that the individual is suicidal or a severe drug abuser.

I am a Tool & Die Maker by trade. I have worked on the bench as a tool maker, I have been a tool & die designer, I have been a tool & die Manager and currently I am Plant Manager for a Tool & Die/Metal Stamping facility in North West Houston that supplies metal components for safety restraints and airbag systems.
I usually tell people that want to know what a tool & die maker is that if they buy me a 12 pack of ice cold Shiner we can sit down and talk all about it because the more I tell people about what a toolmaker is the more questions they ask.
And, NO, I don't make hammers.... but I think Glock does.  :th_thicon_funny:

Lmao. Expensive ones at that!!!!

I'd be willing to pay for a Sixer sometime. I've heard people say that, but nobody's ever explained to my satisfaction what in the world they do.

It is my opinion as a geophysicist that human induced climate change is real, and there is no much we can do about, short of annihilating India and China, who are driving it. The USA is meeting CO2 goals due to use of nat gas instead of coal, better MPG cars, and the recession, unfortunately.

If the world breadbaskets fail year after year due to long term droughts in the mid latitudes, then we shall see where the sh## goes after it hits the fan and gets flung around.

Right now, China and India are intensely interested in fracking for nat gas, which could help get them to reduce coal use. I am involved with that. Coal is a terrible fuel. We also need more nukes. Nukes is something France did right.
