F@H Spotlight #13

This is the 13th in the series of T32 Spotlights! I'll continue to interview members when given a chance. The interviews will appear in a spotlight every now and then as long as the nominations keep coming in! For how to go about nominating a fellow folder, please go to THIS THREAD. To see the ever growing list of who has been interviewed and the expected date of the next spotlight, please go to THIS THREAD.

**note, some of the info in this interview is a bit old. IT was done last decemberish... sorry i didn't get it up faster Tony. If you need to update info, just lemme know and i'll add/append/fix the interview**

We all know there are those out there that are the silent givers. We have members who have hearts as big as the sky. Many of them go unnoticed because they do a majority of thier work outside the forums, helping members through PM, IM, and even over the phone. This member is one of those. He gives his time freely to help out and has spent hours on the phone with me and other members helping us with problems in our lives and helping to support us in times of trouble. Well folks, It's time we give back to this gentleman and help support him and make sure he knows how much he means to the team.

Please welcome and give a big hearty cookie and one of my wife's special brownies to....

When did you join the Team?
I'm not exactly sure but probably a couple of years now.

What is your EOC (extremeoverclockers) stats link?

As co founder of F(OC)LD I think you know this one but here it is hehe.


If there was something recent that you did that you wanted your fellow teammembers to know about, what would it be?
Well I'm always planning and dreaming to get more machine's folding even if I have to buy them lol.

So where do ya happen to live at?
Queens NYC. It's a 10 min trainride to Manhattan.

How did you initially hear about F@H?
I was looking for another home computing program other than SETI that I was running at the time.It seemed like the right move to make.

After starting, why do you continue to Fold?
I fold for all the people that might be helped in the future by this research.I also like the competition aspect too though.
Yes we do love the competition. GO F(OC)LD!!!!!!

What do you do for a living?
Well unfortunately I've been on disability for a few years because of Bipolar disorder.

What do you do for fun?
Lately I've been playing counter strike source alot and running my own server for it.

Is there anything special you do in your spare time that you really enjoy?
My son and daughter are my inspiration in life.Spending time with them is precious.

Time to spill your guts. What are the stats of your main folding rig?
Why is it your fave? What all do you use the rig for?
The main rig is a 3.2 Prescott with a gig of pc 3500.It's my fave cause it kicks ass over my 3ghz Celly lol.I Also game on this rig. Current OC is 217x16 with timings at 2.5-3-3-7

Do you have a Borg-Farm? If so, how many computers, and what are they?
I have only 2 rigs folding. 3.2 Pressy and 3ghz Celly D.Both with a gig of ram

What are your future goals? What do you most want to accomplish with
your life?
I've accomplished most of my goals. I want to get my kids
I just want to raise my kids right and give them the best chance to be successful in life.


If there is something you want to tell the team, then spill your guts! What have I missed in my questions that could help the team learn more about you and who you are?
I'm always workin in the backround even if you don't see me

was talkin' with Strat. Seems he got a bit burned out on CS:S and will be spending a tad bit more time on the forums. We'll see how that works out, though.

Aww man, I see screenshots of CS:S, then I play 1.6 and just go "what a shame." Perhaps some day I may have to try it out, I am a diehard 1.6 fan though.
