This is my old grad school site. My grad school days are well behind me know, but the Computer Science department of the UW-Madison has left it up, for which I am very grateful.

This is a list of assorted dev projects, nearly all recreational Java stuff, mostly from an era when I didn't have kids running around. Note that none of the Java applets are signed or anything, so your browser will whine about security. You can tell my applications are safe by the extraordinary ugliness of this site--if I was hacking your computer for profit I'd spend enough time figuring out color theory to not have this lame blue-gray.
