<h2>What is a "Milliron X"?</h2>
<h3>
It's a
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Livestock_branding">cattle brand</a>,
of course! My cattle brand!
</h3>
<p>
The <dfn>milliron</dfn> is the bar with a bend in the middle. It does not
represent anything physical or textual <i>per se</i>, and is therefore a
rather unique element in cattle brands. Millirons are difficult to modify into
another brand, and provide a guarantee of authentic ownership.
</p>
<p>
<dfn>X</dfn> is the letter of mystery and mystique. For nerds, it's the
unknown in any algebra problem. Ranchers and cowboys will associate it with
big names like the "Bar X" and the "Double X." In either case, it lends itself
to a sense of withholding, prestige, and power.
</p>
<p>
Together, these two symbols represent the qualities I strive for in each of my
works: authenticity, originality, power, depth, and prestige.

<li>🧬 A bioinformatician (by profession)</li>
<li>📐 An engineer (by education)</li>
<li>🐂 A rancher (by lifestyle)</li>
<li>🖥️ A techie (self-taught)</li>
<li>🎥 And a filmmaker (at heart)</li>
</ul>
<p>
I've got a soft spot for Brown Swiss dairy cows (just in case you couldn't
tell by the pictures), and am sometimes called "one of those crazy, Wyoming
dairy cow people." I love anything to do with cattle or technology, but
especially anything to do with both of them.

I am a Wyomingite sojurning in Kansas. That ought to lead to some interesting
stories.

## Milliron X - The homepage of Thomas A. Christensen II
I am an engineer by training, a rancher by upbringing, a techie by experience,
and a filmmaker at heart. I've got a soft spot for Brown Swiss dairy cows (just
in case you couldn't tell by the background image), and am sometimes called "one
of those crazy, Wyoming dairy cow people." I love anything to do with cattle or
technology, but especially anything to do with both of them.

### What is a "Milliron X"?
#### It's a [cattle brand], of course! My cattle brand!
The **milliron** is the bar with a bend in the middle. It does not represent
anything physical or textual _per se_, and is therefore a rather unique element
in cattle brands. Millirons are difficult to modify into another brand, and
provide a guarantee of authentic ownership.
**X** is the letter of mystery and mystique. For nerds, it's the unknown in any
algebra problem. Ranchers and cowboys will associate it with big names like the
"Bar X" and the "Double X." In either case, it lends itself to a sense of
withholding, prestige, and power.
Together, these two symbols represent the qualities I strive for in each of my
works: authenticity, originality, power, depth, and prestige.
