Thanks Adrian. I grew up in Bakersfield, CA (colloquially known as "the armpit of California"). I escaped and went to Cal Poly for my bachelors in computer science, and after a very brief stint working on HPUX, I landed working on the Amazon search engine for A9. I especially enjoy working with compression and encodings, and hope to experiment there some more with Lucene.
