My name is Angel Ramirez Isea. I currently live in the western region of Venezuela, near the Colombian border. I'll soon be 34 years old. I'm currently working in the area of endogenous development (sustainable development at a small community level) projects design, writing and calculation. I'm founder and associate of a Cooperative.
My interest in lojban came by reading and article published in
www.aporrea.org (translation of the one published in the Wall Street Journal). I googled "lojban" up and found the official web site. I buy the idea of a logical language. I've taught English as a Foreign Language and I have studied some Portuguese. I've also toyed with Greek, Italian, Latin, Japanese and even Chinese, but, alas, without a serious discipline. That interest has allowed me to appreciate the logic in lojban and I'm resolute to learn it.
I like music and I understand some of its language. Additionally, I'm a programmer. I started with Tandy's Color Basic, and followed through Visual Basic 6 (Micro$oft) and GAMBAS (Linux). I've programmed in C, C++, Viasual C, dBase, FoxPro, FORTRAN, HP calculators, etc. Probably, I'm into education because it somehow feels like "programming people" ;)
I hope that sooner than later lojban will take off and will serve as an interface between humans and computers. Also, I'm thrilled about the possibility of more logically structuring my own thoughts.
Best wishes,
Angel en Casigua.
