I went on to attend the University of Chicago between ’62 and ’68. ’64-’65 was spent in the civil rights movement in Mississippi.
I moved to San Francisco in 1970 where I lived till 2005. Refused the Vietnam draft in about ’71 or ’72. Very lucky at trial; plead no contest and the federal judge hearing the case sentenced me to probation provided I found work equivalent to alternative service for a conscientious objector. Worked for Blue Shield of California till about 1995. Got a big layoff check at that time and took a kind of sabbatical till going to work for Chinese Hospital in 2000. Lived in the North Beach neighborhood in San Francisco most of my years there and greatly enjoyed it.
Retired to Albuquerque in 2005 where I live now.
I play the Asian board game of go and am currently involved in an effort to organize a trip next February for US go players to play in Havana, Cuba, with players from the Academia Cubana de Go.
My best wishes to my fellow class mates.
