Yup, that is I.  Glad to see someone about to do some SF stuff.  "Brave New World" is one of those curious cases of books that are obviously SF but because they are written by "serious" writers are sometimes not considered to be *real* SF.  By the way, lots of SF fans (and, I suppose, some SF writers) *hate* the term sci-fi, don't ask me why.  They have a reason, supposedly, but I forget what it is.  Personally I don't give a hoot.  I myself never use it, mostly because SF (or S.F. or sf or s.f.) is shorter.  Cheers!

"I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations." ---James Madison

Articles I started

Eggshell skull, Oligarchy, John C. Calhoun, Gideon v. Wainwright, Benjamin N. Cardozo, Thurgood Marshall, Korematsu v. United States, Sam Ervin, Pierce Butler (jurist), Henrik Shipstead (originally from WP), Pierce Butler (Founding Father), Orval Faubus, Alexander Long, Harold E. Hughes, John F. Kennedy, Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions, Paul A. Volcker, Shirley Chisholm, marijuana, Gu Cheng

Illustration of articles

I personally feel that a good article needs some illustrations, so I often upload public domain pictures to illustrate articles. These articles were ones I uploaded and put pictures on:

Some of the U.S. Presidents, and Robert A. Taft, Stephen Douglas, Ben Tillman, Wilmot Proviso, Articles of Confederation, Otto von Bismarck, Horace Greeley, World War II, Homefront, U.S., Albert Gallatin

Articles to watch: controversial topics

Sci-fi

Yup, that is I. Glad to see someone about to do some SF stuff. "Brave New World" is one of those curious cases of books that are obviously SF but because they are written by "serious" writers are sometimes not considered to be *real* SF. By the way, lots of SF fans (and, I suppose, some SF writers) *hate* the term sci-fi, don't ask me why. They have a reason, supposedly, but I forget what it is. Personally I don't give a hoot. I myself never use it, mostly because SF (or S.F. or sf or s.f.) is shorter. Cheers! Hayford Peirce 19:39, 9 June 2007 (CDT)
