Date men from United States / California / Carnelian Bay, 64 year old

Date a man from Carnelian Bay, United States. I moved to the mountains because I am inspired by the energy. I think where I live is one of the most important aspects of my life, few other factors compare to the importance of it. And I moved to the mountains to be inspired in my work and my art and because I dig skiing and mountain biking and learning rock climbing (at which I am a novice). My work has taken a turn. I am developing a product I call a soundcatcher hearing device, it makes listening to music an entirely new experience. Inventing new products for a mass market is the direction I'm currently headed, having been a professor and a small business owner/designer.
I've taken a break from this for some significant reasons. If your notes have been un-answered, that is the explanation.
I like to see an adventurous spirit in a person, a strength of energy that is open to new experience. I respect a person who values independence and self-reliance. I am looking for a person with an creative mind and a free spirit. I appreciate some edginess, against the grain perspective, hip ideals, left of center politics, social and ecological consciousness, a person who has developed a real and deep concept of love in a relationship. extra mega points for having once in her life (now included) been a hippy.
I have two graduate degrees, I can hold my own in a good conversation, I dress very well (for a straight guy) , and can get my hair in place when the occasion calls for it. I present myself well on the top of a small mountain or at the restaurant podium. I design and build furniture and I am developing sensory enhancement products, one is for hearing and another for deep tissue massage.
For comic relief (like the air we need to breath) I am occasionally posting up a quote for the day with some wierd connection to internet dating, for example:
If ONLY I were half the person my dog thinks I am. (favorite bumper sticker)
"You don't need no wax job, you're smooth enough for me." Dylan

on monogamy:
One species is absolutely monogamous. The male anglerfish...bites his chosen one and hangs on. His skin fuses to hers, their bodies grow together...and he becomes essentially a sperm producing organ...they mate for life.
Wolves are generally monogamous but also breed polygamously if prey is plentiful.
On technique:
The male hanging fly offers food items to be eaten by the female during copulation. The female examines the offering while the male searches for her genitalia. Small or unacceptable offerings result in no or very short copulation time...prey 3-8 mm long will provide 1 to 17 minutes of copulation while the gift of a housefly will result in 20-29 minutes.
The male alligator blows bubbles at the female's cheeks to please her and increase chances he will be accepted.

Did you see Diane Sawyer on World News: once again 55 to 65 year old baby boomers are leading the way. They want family and a person to love at the same time, and where are they looking? (commercial break, can you guess) return: they are looking on line at places like match.com..... should be good for enrollment, ha.
