In an unfortunate turn of circumstances, my former adversary,
Chadbryant, has been let go from the Wikipedia community. Although
Chad and I have had a stormy working relationship here, I am still saddened to see him go. I wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

Linden Arden Is Back, Baby!!!
Despite
Chadbryant's best efforts to get me permanently banished from Wikipedia, I have returned. I harbor no ill will toward
Chadbryant. As a matter of fact, I hope that we can reconcile our differences and be partners in creating a better Wikipedia for all.
What You, the Reader, Need to Know about Ol' Linden Arden
My user name, Linden Arden, is an allusion to a song from
Van Morrison's 1974 album
Veedon Fleece. As much as I'd like to edit using my given name, I fear that disagreements on Wikipedia might possibly be carried over into the real world, creating problems that my family and I just don't need.
I feel this note to [Refactored] sums it up quite succinctly:
[Refactored] I Understand Your Scepticism
Our story is one of contention, both here and abroad. However, since the birth of my first child, a son (Evan Chandler S.), on Wednesday evening, I have come to realize that this world is ripe for positive contribution and generativity. Man to man, you and I must put all previous contention aside and embark upon a new age. An epoch, if you will, that will demonstrate to the next generation and beyond that we are/were men hellbent on leaving this world better than we found it. Please, I implore you, [Refactored], take my hand and we will, we must, cut across all man made boundaries to school the new world in universal love and enlightenment. We are one....

I am eternally grateful to
Pitchfork for turning me on to all things musically
Indie. Currently, I spend a lot of time listening to the new
Danielson as well as the
Beirut release. Also, I'm heavily digging the latest
Sonic Youth.
