I'm a past president of PLAN Calgary, also known as The RoadAhead Society of Calgary, which helps people with developmental disabilities and their families work out a plan for living without the support of parents.

Some interesting Science Fair work in astronomy was done by my son, Jonathan Sick, when in Junior and Senior High School. He graduated in astrophysics from Rice in 2008, after working two summers at the Space Telescope Science Insitute in Baltimore. He is now an astrophysics grad student at Queen's.

I'm an amateur photographer. Some of my photos are at my new home page, to which I am transitioning after the demise of Apple's Web Galleries and Homepage features that I formerly used to host photos.
