Hi Mark; thanks for the message. No, I'm not of Irish origin, actually my father's family was English (in the early 1800's) and my mother's family was Prussian (in the late 1700's); however, my family has been in the US for several generations. As for your second question, I'm not sure what it means! (Chalk it up to being a stupid American, I guess.) Anyhow, glad to see you're here, and if you have other questions, feel free to ask. -- Essjay · Talk 03:37, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for voting in my RfA; I promise I'll wield my sacred mop with care. If you ever need me for anything, you know where to find me. Thanks again! -- Essjay · Talk 15:23, July 20, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikimedia UK/Wikimania 2006

Hi, this is a circular to Wikipedians in Ireland to draw your attention to Wikimedia UK, where the establishment of a local Wikimedia chapter for the United Kingdom (and possibly for the Republic of Ireland) is being discussed. See the talk page, as well as the mailing list; a meetup will take place to discuss matters in London in September, for anyone who can get there. On another topic, plans are being drawn up for a UK bid for Wikimania 2006, which would be conveniently close to Ireland. On the other hand, Dublin's bid was one of the final three last year - might we bid again? --Kwekubo 04:16, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Our Fathers

Thanks for your original page Our Fathers and your message. You're right that Glasgow played a significant part: I've worked in a link to it again. -- JimR 04:38, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
