I'm just another fag-about-town, I guess I'm one of the GayBears. I'm on the PrideCommittee and have been with WayvesMagazine forever. I helped build the inside of Rumours on Granville Street when I first came to Halifax. Have done some activism but it's not really my thing. Friend-of but not a card carrying member of BluenoseBears, MacLeather, and SafeHarbourChurch. Card-carrying member of TightRope.

Used to be a:

• member of GaeGala,
• OverThirtiesGroup database person,
• volunteer on the GayLine, and
• chair of Halifax PrideWeek Committee for three years.

You won't find me advertising in the ClassifiedAds or at SeaDogsSauna (except I did write the review after LilBear and I visited on opening day) or using any of the other ways of MeetingPeople.

Current Projects

• Solar Nova Scotia - solar and alternative energy sources, http://solarns.ca/
• WayvesMagazine chief geek
• HistoryProject - a collaborative history of gay life in Halifax
• Helping run this system - writing, tuning up code, monitoring performance. My wishlist for system changes when I have time, can be found in WikiTodoList
• Promoting this system - that is, AdvertiseTheWiki, with luck resulting in WikiInTheNews
• PrideWeek, membership on the PrideCommittee

Back Burner

• A church-y project which for the time being I'll call ChurchGrowthProject.
• ArchivesProject: stalled out due to lack of involved people
• A WayvesMagazineIndex? including advertisers and article authors for the 20-odd year history of the magazine
