Hello, my name is Alan Folsom, and welcome to my web page.
I have no idea why you're here, as this page serves no useful
purpose other than some tests and links for me, but as long as
you are, feel free to look around. If you're looking for the
author of several mystery/adventure books, sorry, I'm not the
one. Besides, he spells his name with two l's. Revise your
search, or try
here.
If, on the other hand, you are trying to find information on the
musician Alan Folsom, try
here. I've never met him,
but he has a strong resemblance to other Folsom's I know;
Probably a distant cousin.
I am 57 (arrghh) years old, and a computer programmer. Until three years ago I was employed by
JMI Software Consultants
of Horsham, PA. The economy being what it is, after 14 years I was
laid off. After 6 months contract programming for them, I am currently contract emploed by Sapling Inc. I also have a strong
interest in the TCL programming language.
In my other life, I am active as a scout leader, and enjoy
playing with knives and knots, and with outdoor dutch oven
cooking. I am currently serving as Clerk of Horsham Monthly Meeting of Friends (Quakers). I'm also a Ham Radio Operator (callsign KY3T), and have
been known to brew a beer or two. I have three sons, Tom age 28,
and the twins, Sam and Ed who are 22. I also have a long
suffering wife: Kitty, who puts up with all my hobbies and
interests.

Should you wish to reach me, any of these email addresses should work. The first is my work email address. The second is my preferred home email address. The third, Bucknell, address simply forwards to the folsoms.net address. If you are enquiring about work, the Sapling address is fine. |
| MY PGP Public key, as well as some information on internet email security, can be found here. |
I've occasionally set up some web sites for organizations
with which I'm involved. Rather old-fashioned web-design by now, visit them if you wish:
| Abington Quarterly Meeting | The Quarterly Meeting is comprised of ten Monthly Meetings north of Philadelphia. |
| Horsham Friends Meeting | A web presence for Horsham Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers). |
| Keystone Hops | The homebrew club where I waste my time. |
| Troop 41 | The scout troop which I helped found, and to which my sons and I belong. I no longer have anything to do with the design of this site, and am very disappointed in the direction it has taken. |
Frustrated by web pages that don't work quite
right?
See if they meet the HTML standards
here, and let the webmaster
know if it's wrong!!
| Should anyone be desperate for something to get me, I have an overly extensive wishlist on Amazon. Of course, there is also an "About You" area, should you want to read my one and only review! | Buying from Amazon? Please enter their site through this link, and 5% of your purchase price will be donated to help scouts attend summer camp. |

And what does the Lord require of
you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?" -- Micah 6:8 |
