Revision as of 20:45, 9 May 2007
Formal education
BS in Computer Science, Portland State University, with a minor in geology.
Major defineable interests
Languages; interaction between humans and machines; science fiction/fantasy and its community; geology and paleontology; cognitive and situational psychology; history outside of Western civilization. (Nothing against Western civilization, it's just that I get bored hearing about the same stuff over and over again.)
Other interests
Peter Cook put it best: "I am specializing in the Universe and all that surrounds it."
What I'm doing here
I started with The Big Cleanup. I've decided the best way to approach article-writing is to go after the topics where there aren't already at least hundred people here who could write them better than me. So I've done a few some calendar articles, and I'm filling in bits and pieces of sf culture, with plans to write articles on some of the major authors.
My first and third articles were on the Positivist calendar and French republican calendar respectively. I like watching the links turn blue as Citizendium expands.
