In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
|
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
|
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

I welcome you to our website, which is
designed to be our members' focal point to keep in touch and up to date,
and to introduce visitors to our Section and the activities of its
members. Our interests are primarily technical, in the diverse
fields of things electrical such as electrical power generation and
distribution, wired and wireless telecommunications, digital networks
and data processing, and the ubiquitous computer. There are many
other interests as can be seen by exploring the IEEE Toronto links on
the left.
Thank you for visiting, enjoy,
Dr. Robert Hanna, P.Eng.
IEEE Toronto Section Chair
