What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

I'm an assistive technology geek, disability rights advocate, and public transit supporter. I do a lot of reading, more screens than paper, more pictures than words, more non-fiction, now.

I trained in three manual trades and have been obsoleted thrice by computer technology. Now retired, former desktop publisher, tech writer, graphic artist, civil engineering drafter, typesetter; braille transcriber, ASL interpreter.

Apple user since 1984.
