I'm retired from the libraries of the University of Georgia but until the middle of 2011 worked part-time to promote and produce network portable facsimile books. The facsimile web site is [http://fax.libs.uga.edu linked here] and there are a few articles about it [http://web.archive.org/web/20110716112705/http://www.uga.edu/columns/051128/q&a.html here] and [http://web.archive.org/web/20110716112712/http://www.uga.edu/columns/050321/news-scanner.html here].

This resulted in a great deal of [http://abob.libs.uga.edu/bobk/comfever.html research regarding the influence comets have had on human culture].

I also have an interest in promoting [http://abob.libs.uga.edu/bobk/coopp.html the consumer ownership form of business] (consumer co-operative model) as a viable alternative to corporate capitalism. The first page of this web site is [http://abob.libs.uga.edu/bobk/ here].
