Confessions of the Happy Hacker Kevin Auld

From amateur radio to the internet and social media. Technology keeps evolving but can government and the importance of community keep up? What a long strange trip it's been. A collection of humorous stories and adventures I experienced in my career as a telecommunications professional, as well as some personal stories as a teenager relating experiences I had with CB radio and other technology hacks. An introspective look at yesterday and today's communications technologies. A report on the history of these technologies and some comments on government regulation and the challenges government faced when trying to keep up to overwhelming demand for cool and new products. I have also thrown in the odd random political opinion just for fun.
