[edit] My nickname

One day you feel like hummus hummus, and another like blintzes blintzes... The original idea was "homo sapiens" with a Mediterranean flavor. Only belatedly I have discovered that humus is different from the intended hummus. I love learning and I don't mind an earthly nick.

[edit] What do I do here

A list of the articles I've created or significantly contributed to is here. I've been a wikipedian since November 27, 2003 and an administrator since April 26, 2006, which excited some of my colleagues. I dream that one day, when there is no more wars and vandalism, I'll be able to retire into some far-away corner of ancient history or Russian art. Meanwhile...

[edit] My policies

The policies I use as a guide in my editing and voting are here. I believe that converting the heat of raw emotions into the light of encyclopedic knowledge may alleviate animosity, if done within the framework of Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines based on Wikipedia:Five pillars. To avoid confusion, we should be careful making assumptions about others. We are all wikipedians.

[edit] Today's puzzle

Recently I was puzzled by this image. If you know the story behind it, you may share your knowledge here.

[edit] My awards

The trophies are here. It's an honor and I appreciate good humor (where applicable).

[edit] Utility room

Some tools and links I keep handy for my own use.
