Offering his Personhood:

Ian is married to Ann who is also an engineer (motion analysis). He is tall, almost 6'5". Dr. Gravagne gives this as one of his quotes to live by, from an anonymous source:

"Great science does not emerge from hard logic and grinding hours. It comes from the mysterious resources of the human brain and soul. Inspiration is nurtured by activities like chopping wood and raking leaves, preparing dinner and reading. These activities soften the rigid pace of the day's pursuits and allow all our God-given intuition to work its illogical magic. Only then can we reach our fullest potential. Only then can we leap from thinking to understanding."
