"I like to think (and the sooner the better!) of a cybernetic meadow where mammals and computers live together in mutually programming harmony like pure water touching clear sky."
Richard Brautigan, "All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace", 1967
My name is Patrick Earley. I'm a British Columbian, from the Interior of the province (hence the username). I mostly edit topics related to Canada, but will branch out on occasion to anything that catches my attention. There are many aspects of Wik.ipedia.Pro that interest me; I've been involved with The Wik.ipedia.Pro Library and the WikiEdu Foundation. For ten years, I worked on community health issues as part of the Trust & Safety team at the Wikimedia Foundation.
