			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I haven&#8217;t really looked at the first post of many blogs.  I imagine most of them start with a post about who the author is.  However, I thought it might be better to start off telling everyone who I&#8217;m not.</p>
<p>I am not the Curtis W. Smith who is the defendant in a trial somewhere in New York.  I have not been in trouble with the law so other than a short dury duty stint the closest I have been to trial is watching Law &#038; Order in HD.</p>
<p>I am not an orthopaedic surgeon from Cleveland.  I have been fortunate enough to never have any major health issues therefore my knowledge of medicine is limited.  Hopefully the only extended hospital visits I have will be to help them set up new broadband data networks.</p>
<p>I am not a company in Corrigan, TX although I do have a habit of doing work myself that used to take several people.</p>
<p>I am not into making miniature models of Captain America.  However I do like to make inanimate objects talk to each other (computers, routers, handheld gadgets).</p>
<p>I am not an Extension Horticulture Specialist located in Arizona.  I am not even sure what extension horticulture is.  That&#8217;s OK because I doubt any of them know as much as I do about dense wave division multiplexing, SONET, microwave and RF radio, or even the GPS constellation of satellites (I was fortunate enough to be involved in the deployment of that system which I now use to reach fitness goals).</p>
<p>In case you are still wondering where I came up with this list I did what most career experts did and &#8220;Googled&#8221; myself.  Except for the first one who is in court they seem to be fine upstanding people.  Of course with a name like mine, or more to the point exactly like mine, they&#8217;d have to be, right?</p>
