In October of 2002, I was awarded "Researcher of the Week" status by the Google Answers Editors:


RESEARCHER OF THE WEEK

Congratulations to Clouseau!

Clouseau has been an active member of the Researcher team since late June, and in that time he has posted 84 answers and 56 comments. He maintains over a 4-star average, which is a reflection of his quality of work and commitment to customer service. While most of his answers relate to computer and technology questions, Clouseau also ventures into non-scientific categories such as family, home, and education. The breadth of his reach as a Researcher and the consistent quality of his answers in all areas sets an excellent example for other members in the community.

In the words of one of his satisfied customers, "A thousand thanks to the legendary Inspector Clouseau."

For a look at some of Clouseau's 5-star answers, please see:

The list goes on and as you can see, the subject matter can be on almost any subject. The project list from my private clients covers almost as broad a spectrum of information as my work on Google Answers and contains more in depth research.  It can be delivered in formats not available at Google Answers including hard copy, CD-ROM, Excel, PowerPoint, Adobe .pdf, images, executables and more.
