M. D. Ireman was diagnosed as 'left-brained' early in life due to a troublesome affliction: an affinity for math and science. The stigma of his condition followed him from primary school into college, where he
earned a scholarship to the Carnegie Mellon School of Computer Science.
Against the pleas of his doctors, however, he gave up his scholarship to pursue a different calling.
Now a middle-aged recluse with more
thumbs than friends, he lives in the mountains of Colorado with his wife and their two four-legged friends.
