M. A. in public sector management (Univ of Penn, '92); and M. S. in computer science, most of a Ph. D. (not completed) in Germanic linguistics and literature, and B. A. in liberal arts, major English (Univ of TN, '83, '81, '74). I joined this wiki in 2007 and was around intermittently while working a variety of jobs in computer programming and consulting. I assumed guardianship of the Citizendium domain to keep this wiki alive, in honor of the past great efforts by Larry, Anthony, Milt, Norman, Ro and others, and the continuing efforts of John S. and the many technical staff who've helped in the past. The sense of community possible here was especially valuable during the COVID-19 shutdowns--and I value it all the time.
