Cegadme, pero no aburridme.
Ese plan es tan vasto que la contribución de cada escritor es infinitesimal. Al principio se creyó que Tlön era un mero caos, una irresponsable licencia de la imaginación; ahora se sabe que es un cosmos y las íntimas leyes que lo rigen han sido formuladas, siquiera en modo provisional.
This plan is so vast that each writer's contribution is infinitesimal. At first it was believed that Tlön was a mere chaos, an irresponsible license of the imagination; now it is known that it is a cosmos and that the intimate laws which govern it have been formulated, at least provisionally.

I am a reader, writer, and unpaid translator. My favorite region is Latin America, particularly Argentina and Uruguay. If you're looking for something to read, try Borges, Joyce, Gaddis, Saramago, Southern, Nietzsche, Banville, Mistry, or the early work of Salman Rushdie.
[edit] Articles I Began
Most of these articles are stubs. Those which have grown beyond stubs have usually done so without my help. Those which I translated are in italics. A few years ago I edited under the account of "Binadot". I include his articles among mine, since he is not in a position to complain.

The Barnstar of Good Humor |
| You are, to be sure, eminently deserving of a barnstar for your substantive contributions (both to articles and at the language reference desk, in view of positive experiences at which many first-time visitors join the project), or even of one for the fact of remarkable concordance of the various stances enumerated on your user page with my views, but I think you to be, as I, inclined to jocularity, so I bestow this barnstar on you in appreciation not only of the general cordiality you radiate but also of the specific provenance of your user name, which I find particularly amusing.
