This user does not wish to speak or hear dumbass, but is resigned to the necessity of at least understanding it in an environment of massive collaboration.
This user has had his/her work published in an academic journal.
I guess maybe it's about time I actually put some content in my user page? I do have my own Web sites in which I do say some stuff about myself and rant about my pet peeves and stuff, though.
I try to concentrate on places where I can do productive stuff without getting into an edit war, but I haven't always succeeded in staying out of conflict and controversy.
