# Ontology of Cyberspace 2003
**Opening (not a real abstract):** Philosophy professor, legal analyst, and science fiction writer, David Koepsell lives in Amherst, New York, with his wife, Joanne, and their basset hound, Buttercup. He has tinkered with computers all his life, beginning with his first TSR-80 when he was a child, typing in Basic 'Pong' pro grams from Compute magazine, and now owns one of the leading collections of antique computers.
