    2. SOME SOCIO-BIO-DATA TO 2013

    I have been married twice for a total of 46 years. My second wife is a Tasmanian, aged 65. We’ve had one child: age 35. I have two step-children: ages: 46 and 42, three step-grandchildren, ages 19, 16 and 2, as well as one grandchild aged 15 months. All of the above applies in January 2013. I am 68, am a Canadian who moved to Australia in 1971 and have written several books--all available on the internet.

    I retired from full-time teaching in 1999, part-time teaching in 2003 and volunteer teaching/work in 2005 after 32 years in classrooms as a teacher and another 18 as a student. During this half century I have been a member of the Baha’i Faith. Bio-data: 6ft, 230 lbs, eyes-brown/hair-grey, Caucasian.

    My website is found at: http://www.ronpriceepoch.com/ You can also go to any search engine and type: Ron Price followed by any one of a number of words in addition to: poetry, forums, religion, literature, history, bipolar disorder, psychology, sociology, philosophy, inter alia, to access my writing________________________
