Profile

Science writer/editor. SCAdian -- loyal resident of the Barony of Storvik in the Kingdom of Atlantia. What else is there to say? Oh, yeah ... I'm a Unitarian Universalist, past president of my local Toastmasters club, a holder of two bachelor's degrees and one master's degree (geez, I have twice as much B.S. as most everyone else!), and a cat servant.

"But if by a 'Liberal' they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind,
someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions,
someone who cares about the welfare of the people --
their health, their housing, their schools,
their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties --
someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad,
if that is what they mean by a 'Liberal,'
then I'm proud to say I'm a 'Liberal'."
-- John F. Kennedy, September 14, 1960
