These days he runs Remote Area Medical, a volunteer airborne relief corps that brings medical, dental, and educational assistance to remote areas of the world. Every year, they go to remote Appalachian Virginia, a one day drive from Washington DC, for a 3 day event at the fairgrounds.

ramomaccessmemory.org is a site that lets you store memories when they occur to you and read the memories of others.

What's old is new again. This sounds suspiciously like "core", which is what computers used when I was in college.
