Who is This Guy ...and Why is He Here? Hello there, friend. My name is Andrew and I'm what you might call a starving artist. I write, paint, and (attempt to) compose all in the name of self-expression. Ironically, I'm also a disciple of Chán Buddhism. I suppose I'll be expressing myself until I finally come to the realization that there's no self to express. Humor (or lack of) aside, I'm here to offer my modest expertise to this great compendium of knowledge. There is a long list of topics that I would like to see expanded, and while I plan to do what I can; I'm merely one man and there is only so much I can give. It is for that reason that I am a (relatively) outspoken advocate of Wikipedia. I may not know something, but I can find someone who does (though it's just as likely that such a person is already here). Yes, I'm well aware of the criticism that Wikipedia and its founding philosophy has received. Even so, I can't help but see something unique in this little project. I daresay I'm not alone in this sentiment.
