I joined this wiki in 2007 and was around intermittently for many years, except recently. When Citizendium teetered in mid 2020, I returned after a long hiatus and took ownership of the domain to help the project continue, in honor of the past great efforts by Larry, Anthony, Milt, Norman, Ro and others, and the continuing efforts of John S. and the current technical staff. The sense of community possible here is especially valuable during the COVID-19 shutdowns.

My interests in this wiki are as often personal as professional, and wide ranging. On the academic side:

• M. A. in public sector management (Fels Center, Univ. of Penn., 1992)
• M. S. in computer science (Univ. of Tenn., 1983)
• B. A. in liberal arts (Univ. of Tenn., 1974)

Some articles I've been working on:

• Gertrude Stein
• Mary Baker Eddy
• Quinto_(grid_game)
• Theodor Fontane
• Walt Whitman

Way back:

• Ruby (programming language)
• Coal mining
• One-way encryption

Mars, Saturn, Neptune, and maybe Earth, need to be renamed with (planet) after them, and a disambig page provided.
