From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rindis is a too-busy person with interests in history, science-fiction, and gaming as well as being an all around general geek.
The name doesn't really mean anything. But it's handy, pronouncable, and allows me to use the same user name on all the various boards and the like I'm on. (Instead of being 'JamesL1352' on one and 'JamesL448' on another.)
...though Google does tell me that a 'Universal Rindis' is a type of lathe....
I have a sandbox where I have notes to remind me what I'd like to do/write up. And I need to remember to go through my sources to help with a few articles.
[edit] Current projects
Trying to get some organiziation with WikiHobby on wargaming-related articles:

Overhaul of Star Fleet Universe area. Want to talk about the nature of each game's contributions to the SFU.
- Expanded Star Fleet Battles article to something approximating what I feel it should be like. Would like to see some more annlysis/description of the system, but I'm stalled at the moment.
