Zora is on wiki-break -- is exhausted -- is tired of re-enacting King Canute.
Zora is my nom de Distributed Proofreaders [1]. That's where my heart is, preserving the literary heritage of the world. One of my DP teammates, Cimon Avaro, introduced me to Wikipedia. I'm also active in my local Zen group [2]. When I am paid for working, I am a writer, copyeditor, and proofreader.

I have three cats (Mamacita, Twit, and Mehitabel) and one daughter, who is a music major and aspiring computer composer at Mills. I'm a book geek with a bad reading habit. I've attended Reed College and Berkeley (B.A.) and University of Chicago (M.A., A.B.D.). I also have an associate's degree in computer technology. Every bit of my system unit lovingly hand-placed by me <g>

[edit] Thumbs down

I've been accused of being:

• A Pakistani
• Anti-Pakistani
• A Bengali
• Anti-Hindu
• An Arab
• A Jew
• A Zionist enforcer
• A genoicidal Nazi
• An Islamofascist
• A Wahhabi spy
• A Salafi [3]
• Anti-Shi'a
• A Nasibi
• A Takfiri
• A racist
• A Canadian
• An Un-Canadian
• A Martian

I am always thrilled when I collect a new epithet for my roster of ethnic/religious insults.
