If Wikipedia is to be a reflection of human knowledge, then it must be fiddly, because human knowledge is fiddly.
I believe Wikipedia can be elegant, relevant, and incisive.
All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.

I subscribe to the Hubert Dreyfus critique of AI.
I am in favor of nuclear energy.
I enjoy recreational mathematics, particularly as it pertains to the manipulation of skill toys such as yoyos and pen spinning.
I take refuge in Amida Buddha.
