About Gramps
Gramps is a moral voice in an Internet environment that can be awash in immorality. Ask Gramps is a breath of fresh air, a favorite among young and old. He writes with down-home wit and knows something about everything (although he is not ashamed to admit that he often solicits help from experts to answer some questions). Gramps is highly conservative, unabashedly God-fearing, and will find a way to teach you a moral lesson. His approach is to invite people into his family through validating their concerns; providing quick, entertaining, easy-to-understand answers; and ending with a warm sentiment that gives hope.
When the Internet was in its infancy, this real-life grandpa began corresponding with his grandchildren via e-mail. His grandkids called him “Gramps.” Having been a prominent scientist and a life-long student of the scriptures, Gramps was able to offer unique answers to a myriad of questions. When other people became acquainted with his sage advice and informed answers, the online Ask Gramps column was born. Quickly, subscribers grew to over 10,000. Suddenly, Gramps was swamped with questions. When his column mushroomed to over 60,000 subscribers, he decided to develop a dedicated Web site to better field the questions and manage the content. Today, with readers that span the world, Gramps can brag that he has more grandchildren than any grandpa on the planet.
