From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I was born in 1964 in New York City, and living my first thirty two years all around her, and in three states. I eventually attended Lehigh University in Bethlehem Penn., and from which I received a B.A. in 1990 (philosophy/history). I have had a variety of jobs over the years, and having passed 50 as of 2014, am presently in semi-retirement. I have edited, and contributed, to many pages, including (but limitedly) Philosophy and Philosophy of Science, but more broadly sports, and especially the history, buildings, institutions, and people of Lehigh University.

From 2017 onwards I will be in a semi-retirement from my Wikipedia editing... I have enjoyed it very much, and hope it has proved helpful, but for a few years I will be dedicated and tied to other events, other causes. To reiterate, it is my belief that truly there is no 'hard evidence', and that all evidence will ultimately rely, in one way or the other, on human testimony. This explains my emphasis on personal testimony in my editing. Above all, of course, the question is what truth is.

I have lived in New London, NH (P.O. Box 2516, zip: 03257) since 1996. Please feel free.

It is Christmas, 2017.... and after a year off, I have returned. I plan to place in an addition shortly to the Lehigh Un. page concerning events, turmoil, and controversy during WW2, but that was actually reflective of the 20th century at Lehigh generally, if indeed not the entire history of the school....
