Particulars:  Born 19 July 1978.  Attended Wakefield County Day School in Huntly, Virginia through second grade.  Afterwards was home schooled.  Jan was an avid skier and skateboarder and had planed to join the army with his cousin David but the accident made that impossible. Jan enjoys big band music, collecting stamps and learning Latin phrases.  He enjoys a cigar perhaps twice a year on special occasions.  Excessive work, mental stimulation, emotional stress or anesthesia causes Jan to experience symptoms similar to those of someone with post-traumatic stress syndrome.
