| == About Me == I am just a spring chicken of the ''compuverse'', having only started noodling on computers twenty about years ago with an Apple IIe in elementary school. Today, I still use an Apple machine to stay in touch with my inner evil corporate self, but I have many more machines which are running free, and open source operating systems, and software at my evil genius lab located in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, USA where I currently reside with my wonderful wife, and two young children. I have a sense of humor on loan from an extra-terrestrial being until the year 2020. |

| I have used Ubuntu now for only two months, on an IBM ThinkPad. However, the quality of the distribution has convinced me to begin repaying my debts of kindness to the free, and open source software communities. To that end, I am now trying to work at providing some halfway-decent wordage to the Ubuntu Documentation Team effort. So far, I seem to be doing a wee bit better than a rapid Windows zealot (;-)). Fortunately, the folks who make up he Documentation Team, are like any of those associated with Ubuntu-- ''wonderful fellow Human beings''! '''Cheers to the kind people of Ubuntu for giving me the inspiration to help out'''! | nothing "fresh" in quite some time- but, hey, that could change... ;-) |

| == My Contributions to Ubuntu == I am trying to contribute to Ubuntu as much as possible in several ways. I am currently advocating, and evangelizing the merits of Ubuntu in a semi-professional capacity in my local area, working to help the Documentation Team, helping others in IRC, pitching in a little on the Wiki, and working on an book which deals with Ubuntu-related information. |
== About == I am just a spring chicken of the ''compuverse'', having only started noodling on computers just over 20 ago with an Apple IIe in elementary school. Today, I still use an Apple machine to stay in touch with my inner Mac cultist, but I have far more machines which are running free, and open source operating systems, and software within my evil genius lab snuggled away in the vast beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, USA. There, I currently reside with my wonderful wife, and two young children. I also have an official, acrid, and dangerous sense of humor, on loan from an extra-terrestrial being until the year 2020. (hey don't scoff- some people claim to have talent on loan from $DIETY!) == Ubuntu Contributions == I have only helped out as I can, when I can, but have certainly given far more to Ubuntu than I have any other free, or open source project to date, and I am happy to do so! In the future, I'd like to contribute more documentation efforts on the Wiki, possibly in the format of simple, step-by-step how-to guides, and finish my book, which has grown to be somewhat Ubuntu-specific at this point. In the more immediate future, I am launching an Art Project based on Ubuntu. Stay tuned! |

nothing "fresh" in quite some time- but, hey, that could change... 
About
I am just a spring chicken of the compuverse, having only started noodling on computers just over 20 ago with an Apple IIe in elementary school. Today, I still use an Apple machine to stay in touch with my inner Mac cultist, but I have far more machines which are running free, and open source operating systems, and software within my evil genius lab snuggled away in the vast beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, USA. There, I currently reside with my wonderful wife, and two young children. I also have an official, acrid, and dangerous sense of humor, on loan from an extra-terrestrial being until the year 2020. (hey don't scoff- some people claim to have talent on loan from $DIETY!)
Ubuntu Contributions
I have only helped out as I can, when I can, but have certainly given far more to Ubuntu than I have any other free, or open source project to date, and I am happy to do so! In the future, I'd like to contribute more documentation efforts on the Wiki, possibly in the format of simple, step-by-step how-to guides, and finish my book, which has grown to be somewhat Ubuntu-specific at this point. In the more immediate future, I am launching an Art Project based on Ubuntu. Stay tuned!
IRC
I am sometime active on IRC in #ubuntu, trying to help others out, and learning in the process myself!
