Bergmann's L5 Orbitat (The Bergmann Series) (ePub)

George Pinneo, an Army-brat, lived in 4 states and 8 different locations during WWII. He grew up in NW Ohio, graduating from Case Institute of Technology with a BSChE in 1959. His technical career spans 59 years of experience: front-end wafer fab microelectronics, diode laser and hybrid packaging with a focus on fully hermetic package design and manufacture. Along the way he was the fourth founder in a successful article surveillance start-up in Hollywood FL. This entrepreneur loves to hear the phrase: 'you can't do that'! And then to do it, of course! One of his specialties is fluxless, fully hermetic, hard soldering for microelectronic packages.

Family vacations have taken the Pinneos through Canada to Alaska, Hawaii, into Mexico and the Caribbean with sojourns to Western Europe, New Zealand and parts of Australia. A recent trip took them through Baltic Europe to visit the cities of the Hanse.

So far they've visited 18 Caribbean islands, 7 Canadian provinces, 49 of the 50 states and 11 Mexican estados. Another trip took them through Andalucia, where they stood on top of the Rock and gazed across the Med at the mountains rising in Morocco, some 8 miles south beyond the coast of North Africa. And then they visited the ancient city of Tangiers!

They have no intention of visiting North Dakota. The family lives up on the Mogollon Rim of Arizona. Recent summer vacations have taken them from Arizona to British Columbia, Vancouver Island and across the Mid-West to Michigan's UP and into Ontario to visit Toronto.
