-I have worked all over Citizendium, especially in the [https://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Category:Computers_Workgroup Computers Workgroup].  I once served on the governing council, when no one else would, in hopes of keeping the project alive.  When Citizendium teetered again in mid 2020 (first year of the COVID-19 era), I wanted to recover the sense of community that I formerly had in Citizendium, so I returned (after a long hiatus) and took ownership of the Citizendium domain to help the project continue.  My interests are wide ranging and include traditional music, languages, science fiction, literature, plants and flowers.  I once contributed significantly to an article in here on [[Coal mining]].
