[edit] I'm just this bloke

Tamfang, in case you were wondering, is Elvish for copper beard.

I'm Anton Sherwood, one more middle-aged adolescent with a library, a modem and no life.

I love Baroque and world fusion music; the sunlight of a late afternoon in spring; making what I call mathematical doodles with PoV-Ray.

I am afflicted (to varying degrees) with depression, insomnia, underemployment, and Rapture of the Future; allergic to perfumes, pollen, authority and good advice.

I can count to ten in nine languages. I was once fluent in Esperanto, French and Tourist Italian.

I have received compliments on my voice, my habit of whistling (believe it or not) and a bit of a knack for pinning the tail on the fallacy.

I attended University Laboratory High School of Urbana, Illinois but have not won a Nobel, Pulitzer or Ig Nobel Prize.

I was, so they tell me who keep track of such things, the first Libertarian in California to be endorsed for partisan office (Assembly) by a major daily newspaper (the San Francisco Examiner before Hearst Corporation sold it). This happened during the newspaper strike of 1994.

My Wikipedia activities include

major rewrites of Uniform polychoron and Andreini tessellation, and minor edits to many articles about polytopes and other branches of mathematics;
a pruning-by-chainsaw of Heraldry, and minor edits to related pages;
reorganization of Enclave + Exclave into Enclave and exclave + List of enclaves and exclaves;
creation of vampire (Buffyverse) — and then, a few days later, someone else replaced it with a completely different article, full of padding, misspellings and unlinked references. I guess everyone gets a shock like that sooner or later.
