Bruce is well-known in model railroading circles for his C/MRI system.
Designed to control model railroads via computer, it gained a lot of use
from hobbyists in the organization. More information about his products are
found here:

As for books, I'd have to 2nd Fahrenheit 451. Also, Hitchhiker's Guide to
the Galaxy, Neuromancer and a couple of Kurt Vonnegut's books.
I used to have a subscription to Amazing Stories in the early 1990s, they
were pretty good too.
