Immediately after the publication of my article titled ‘4000 Years of Illustrious History of Somalia’ (http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/58344), I received an email from the part of a multi-talented and erudite researcher, Mr. Israel Cohen. His areas of research and professional activities oscillate from actuarial analysis and technical writing to computer programming / analysis, and software engineering (computer aided design, avionics, electrical engineering).
