[edit] Wikipedia Activity

Thomas Keating was my first edit from scratch. My first substantial edit came about when I went to a page linked from the Main Page and it was a horrible, unclear mess. I've made major contributions to Wallace Stevens and touched up John Clare a bit. I set out to copy edit Censorware and it turned out to be more challenging (and interesting) than I anticipated. John Beebe is my first original article in the area of psychological type. I also started Luke Timothy Johnson and Michael Hollinger. Now I need to figure out how the best way to get pictures of these living subjects.

Regarding Gibberish, see Stevens' "Notes Toward a Supreme Fiction," II.ix.

You can see my occasional questions and responses at the Humanities and Language reference desks.

I'm serious about ideas and spirituality; I practice Centering Prayer and have a deep interest in the Christian mystics, especially Julian of Norwich, The Cloud of Unknowing, and Catholic Spirituality.

I'm not so serious about just about everything else. As a matter of fact, you might find me sometimes not so serious about the things I'm serious about.
