I am a fortysomething Wikipedian originally from Boston, Massachusetts, United States. My interests include Spanish literature, rock and ice climbing, running, cooking and gastronomy, maps, and the music of Radiohead. I tend to err on the side of inclusionism and am a true believer in eventualism; however, I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger if I suspect vandalism.
