Hello. I've been a Wikipedian since 2004.

The photo above was taken in Kaliningrad, Russia, in 1998, at Kant's tomb.
While I cannot claim to be a serious student of Kant, I value some of his
basic thoughts, including the motto "Dare to know" (Latin: sapere aude).

I have a B.A. in journalism and 30-some years' experience as a reporter, editor and copy editor Script error: No such module "string".– and experience as an intake officer at a state human rights commission.
