Harry Oshman
Harry started out with German as his first language, learned basic English, then gave up on words before he was ten and switched over to the schematical hieroglyphic language of feedback systems in electronics as a form of personal expression. It did land him a short career, but he was rendered obsolete by technological change. Now he has returned to English to express himself. Held up by the loving grace of friends during an exit from mainstream employment, Harry is working on ways of still thinking at a systems level, but using the English language to do that.
