I lost my main source of employment in IT shortly after 9/11 when commuting from my home in Canada to my job in the US became very difficult. To add insult to injury, most employers considered me "too old" to start fresh with a new company. That was in 2002! Since then, I've applied my 45+ years of experience in my own small business, performing PC maintenance, web design and web hosting services for personal and small business clients.
