About Me

I'm a professional computer geek, photography enthusiast and sometime writer/editor. These three attributes made my participation here on Wikipedia an inevitability -- the mystery is why it took me so long to register. I live in the United States of America, in a state that's frequently too hot in the summer and too cold and snowy in the winter. My username here is essentially meaningless.
