Welcome to TalkingTree.com, the personal homepage and blog of Steven Erat, ColdFusion Product Support for Macromedia, and former Biologist with the USDA, NIH, and Brandeis. I hope to share information I run across everyday in my role as a Macromedia Support Engineer, and you'll also find photos of many of my trips and small adventures, recent events in Internet technology, as well as some aspects of Biology and Science. Frankly, who knows what you'll find here, but I hope to keep the blog up to date and interesting.
