is the online nickname by which I subscribe to several websites. I used to be a member on Snopes.com's messageboards, and accumulated over 15,000 posts, before being banned for reasons that were never explained to my satisfaction. I think I scared the site's owner when I took on one of his pet trolls. But I'll never know for sure, as my allegiances have shifted.
Yes, I know how lame that sounds.

This is the most recent picture of me that is decent enough for display. I just don't photograph well. This is me in my tux a couple of years ago, just after I became a Master Mason (no, it's not really a secret, I can tell you that.)
