Ron & Bob Jammin' on Keyboard
Ron (left) and Bob jammin' some musical thoughts on Bob's keyboard before a Friday night gig. Click here to see Bob's more usual musical repertoire.
This page is largely owed to Kay Killen, A.K.A. The "Hat Lady," "Camera Gal," ..., in whom all herewith concerned attribute SOME of the responsibility. (Some of Kay's Mad-Hatter pictures follow.)

In addition to running Collier Electronics Manufacturing, Bob is involved in a range of interests including (for some examples) the teaching of mathematical sciences and engineering, arranging and playing pop and jazz keyboard styles, debating religious and political philosophies and related behavioral psychology. At this stage in the evolution of Collier Electronics, Bob's been gearing it up from its roots, and even getting a webpage together (as you've noticed). Given suitable time, he'll get to this communication on 'About Bob Collier' as priorities eventually justify preparing a resume suitably representative of Bob Collier.

But for now let's just summarize some of Bob's basic certifiables:

Radio Station/Operator license holder WA5ESL, initially licensed by the Federal Communications Commission in 1965.

Bachelor of Science (Mathematics major, Music minor) 1974, Stephen F. Austin State University
Master of Science (Physics major) 1978, Stephen F. Austin State University

All graduate work was pursued under a graduate teaching
assistantship at Stephen F. Austin State University.

Member:

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers,
and
The American Association for the Advancement of Science

Publications (abridged list):
1. Robert L. Collier, American Journal of Physics, vol. 57, no. 4, (April 1989), 'Exercises in the Synthesis of Electrical Impedances.' (See Note 1, below)
2. Robert L. Collier, M.S. Thesis: 'The Percus-Yevick and Hypernetted-Chain Potentials of Liquid Indium,' c. 1978 by Robert L. Collier.
3. T. O. Callaway, R. W. Gruebel, R. L. Collier, M. L. Harris, Physics Letters, vol. 65A, no. 3, pp.244-246, 'The direct pair-correlation function of liquid indium.'

Note 1: The electronic circuits presented in the first-listed publication, and the method used in those circuits' development, were subsequently patented under U. S. Patent 4,963,845. For this purpose, Bob served as his own legal representative for prosecuting his patent application in the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Wull, okay. I reckon I must confess... ...for me 'twas a time for healing...
...and for contemplating peculiar scars, mutations, ... likely to arise as byproducts of my fowl-headed affliction.
...the band played on:
Ron, caught momentarily
without his lampshade.

Whilst showing off one of his renowned martial-arts maneuvers, Director Bill assesses unforeseen dissonances and then emphasizes "letter SSSEEE".
A'las, Kay pays her dues, by sporting the fowl straddler as had we all, but somehow Kay does it with a higher state of grace.
