[edit] Biography

I am Richard "Doc" Kinne. I live in East Somerville, MA. I am an Astronomical Technologist with great interest in Linux computer operating systems and variable star research.

I live with my two cats, Castor & Pollux, in Norfolk Flat, a small, pinkish duplex.

[edit] Academics

High School was spent at Rome (NY) Catholic High. I was semi active in the newspaper and yearbook.

Undergraduate years were spent at SUNY Oswego in NY where my major was Computer Science with a minor in Astronomy. I was active in the local TV media, WTOP-TV Ch. 10, as weather reporter, then weather director, and a Board member.

Graduate school was virtually done in Melbourne, AUS at Swinburne Technical University where I received a MSc. in Astronomy.

[edit] Current Activities

[edit] Wiki Career

I first began doing a bit of edits with Vikipedio, the Esperanto version of Wikipedia a few years ago. From there I moved to Wikipedia. I spent a bit of time involved in Wikinews starting in November, 2006 after seeing and being very impressed with Good Night, and Good Luck. Hey, everyone needs an inspiration.

[edit] The Blog

The Wiki Projects have a strict policy of a neutral point of view, and in this context NPOV is a wise, wise policy. However, as a human being, I have a hell of a lot of opinions. You can read them here on my LiveJournal.
