Hi, I'm Charles Wilson usually called Charlie or CH. College drop out after one year but I've been a curious autodidact all my life. (And I suppose both possible meanings of that phrase fit.) My interest in science was encouraged by my family but my love of physics was kindled by an excellent teacher in high school, Doctor David Laird. He clearly loved his subject and did his best to make the subject fascinating.

Shrodingers cat certainly helped as well.
