As most other web-pages too these are very self-centric and offer close to nothing for an unfocused surfer. To the voyers among you, I have no sex, drugs, violence, guns, bomb instructions, Saddam Hussein or any other related information available in these pages. In fact, most of you will find these pages extremely boring and I suggest you surf back to the hole where you came from.
My lovely wife, Maija does not have her own home pages currently so these pages will go as hers too. Maija has her own email address so if you want to get back at me just drop her a note at mja@compart.fi.
Miscallenous
Hmm... No matter how much you try to categorize the material you dump on your home page you always end up with a misc or unsorted section. So here it goes:
Security advisory - Critical vulnerability with Christian chronology after 31.12.1999
Summary: Acme Corporation has been informed about a critical vulnerability with Christian chronology system. At the end of year 1999 the first digit of the year pointer might unexpectedly change from 1 to 2.
Impact: Most software and hardware systems are not capable of handling large numbers causing instability and in worst cases complete cut in the system services.
Solution: The Christian chronology is changed so, that the next date after 31.12.1999 will be 1.13.1999 (previously known as 1.1.2000). This logic can be continued until 31.99.1999 (previously known as 31.3.2007) after which the date will be 32.1.1999.
Flying
Flying has always been a thing close to my heart and therefore I have two separate pages dedicated for flying, the StuBird-page and the StuPeanut-page.
Moreover, I am a member and the webmaster for the infamous VLeLv Icebreakers. The picture above is me making a low pass on Mosquito Meeting '98 at Menkijärvi.

Family - Pyry and Otso
We have a dual Son bio-processor system installed at our home. The primary system Pyry was delivered 22-Oct-97 05:30am, three weeks before the estimated delivery time. The Finnish name Pyry means a snow blizzard and truly, Helsinki got the first snow the night Pyry was born.
And as if we did not learn anything from the primary processing unit we ordered another item. The Otso unit was delivered at 04-Jan-01 16:46. Otso is a nickname for bear.
Both units have major malfunctions in the energy saving features, especially the volume control function is totally broken. The units are far from the requirement specifications or what is described in the manuals. The systems may have irregular resets every two or three hours and when one processor is resetting it is affecting the stability of the other one. Another feature that we seem to be stuck with is that somehow the early voice output has been transmogrified to an output of different nature, the voice has been replaced by physical contents and (uh) smell.
It is becoming more and more evident, that both units have some advanced artificial intelligence features, taken from the fact that they can already fool the Wife 1.0. However, there is one positive feature that relates to long sleep mode, sometimes even seven hours in one session.
Unfortunately it is apparent that there is no money back guarantee so we have to keep both units.
Working history
I am currently working for Nokia (NMP/MSW) as a Product Manager. I also have a history with Teamware Group Oy in numerous positions between 1994 and 2000.
Prior to Teamware I was working on my own doing consulting and programming for small companies. That was very hectic and pleasant time of my life but after some extensive family and future planning I decided to give the own company up (for now).
Late 80's and early 90's I was fortunate enough to run a small computer shop in Helsinki. During that time I finished my studies too and finally I decided to move on with my own enterprise.
Should you be interested in a full featured Curriculum Vitae please do not hesitate to to contact me by email.
Motorcycling
Motorcycles has been a hobby of mine since I inhertited my fathers old 125cc Vespa '73 in 1986. The red Anagonda was a beast and since then I have been hooked with bikes or all sorts. I currently own a Harley Davidson FL.
Webmaster for biker sites
I am webmastering a number of different motorcycling related sites. The MC BajaHill has been virtual since summer 1995. I'm also administrating the SMOTO (Suomen Motoristit r.y.) pages, MMAF (Modified Motorcycle Assosiation of Finland) pages, the sfnet.harrastus.mp FAQ as well as the mpaction mailing list.
In addition to all this, I am the DoD#2041. DoD is a virtual community of motocyclists, mainly those authoring frequently in rec.motorcycles.
