<BR>Hello:<BR>
<BR>
I'm Marty Brody. I live in Skokie Illinois, a Chicago Suburb. I'm the credit manager for Tech Lighting, a manufacturer of very up to the moment mostly overhead lighting. Lots of LED and other energy saving fixtures in addition to great styling. <BR>
<BR>
Five mornings a week I do water aerobics or stationary bicycle ride. I'm a great fan of theatre and classical music. I am able to attend 40 to 50 live theater performances and Chicago Symphony Orchestra performances each year by volunteering through a performing arts volunteer group called "The Saints".<BR>
<BR>
I enjoy reading histories and biographies.<BR><BR>
This is my second encounter with Reading Odyssey. I read The Odyssey with this group last spring. Herodotus looks great from what I've read so far and I'm looking forward to this experience.<BR><BR><BR>

<DIV>Hi, I am Helen Haertl. I live in Portland, OR and work in the consumer experience arena (mainly online) in the healthcare industry. This is my second Reading Odyssey - the first was The Odyssey. I've always wanted to read more of the classics and this is a great way motivate myself to do so and to get insight from others doing the same thing. </DIV>
