--------

Richard,
	My resume is attached.  But I will probably have seen you at 1-115 
before you read this.

I am especially looking for PART-TIME software development work.
Or, work in the areas of:    aerospace, CAD, animation, educational software

If I have not seen you, please send a 'reply' to this mail, so that I know 
it got through.

I am bringing information on a new company: Kistler Aerospace, which you 
might be curious about.

Thanks,    --Bruce  Mackenzie;

	Was an officer or volunteer for several nonprofit organizations, 
including the National Space Society, Space Studies Institute (SSI), Students 
for the Exploration and Development of Space (SEDS), MIT Outing Club, 
Appalachian Mountain Club, Boston Computer Society (BCS).  Member of 
Planetary Society and Sierra Club.
	As member of corporate Board of Director and officer of MIT Outing 
Club for 15 years, was involved in management of 2 buildings, rental 
equipment, budget, insurance and liability issues.  Personally managed a ski 
lodge for several years.
	President of National Space Society - Boston Chapter, and elected to 
the NSS national board of directors.
	Am the Boston local support team coordinator for the Space Studies 
Institute and help run their biannual Princeton Space Manufacturing 
Conference.

	Have attended seminars, classes, and conferences, including the 
January term (IAP) at MIT, on a variety of technical and nontechnical 
subjects:  project management, compiler optimization, computer languages, 
user interfaces, X windows, aerospace, mechanical engineering, 
nanotechnology, molecular engineering.
	Lab assistant for MIT Mechanical Engineering Department CAD class.
	Taught canoeing and kayaking, include college physical education 
class.
	Regularly lead canoe and ski trips for the Appalachian Mountain Club

Other Design Experience:
	Have presented own designs at professional aerospace conferences

	Given slide presentations about space related topics to local groups.

Computervision   (CV),   details of professional experience, 1975-85:
	Software development:  Designed, wrote, and integrated enhancements 
to CV's product - the CADDS system (Computer Aided Design & Drafting System).  
Major assignments were in:  mechanical drafting, dimensioning, text display, 
electrical components, menu input, file input, operating system, debugging 
aids, text editors, electrostatic plotter output, and specialized commands 
for Boeing, Ford, and other specific customers.
	Documentation:  Wrote and revised manuals and on-line documentation 
for for my own work and for several dozen commands provided by Ford Motor 
Company.
	Maintenance;  Tested and fixed  most bugs found by Boeing, as well as 
our share for each general release.
	Training:  Was frequently assigned to train or advise junior members 
of my group, always at least 10% of my time.
	Conversion:  Planned and supervised conversion of the CADDS 3 package 
to standard Fortran and an upgraded OS & CPU.  This involved creating 
automatic conversion tools, some manual conversion and rewriting, and source 
code control for over 10,000 routines.  With only 2 man-years of effort, we 
converted all standard commands and were able to run most benchmark tests.  
We achieved the same performance improvement as the (larger) CADDS 4 to 4X 
conversion which took approximately 150 to 200 man-years.
	Misc:  Initiated a PASCAL evaluation study in 1977.  Added runtime 
trace to Ratfor compiler.  Member of employee-suggestion evaluation 
committee.  Acting manager of Boeing support group when needed.
