This user is a grognard. This user is a member of the SOS Brigade – Wikipedia Branch. This user plays World of Warcraft. LJ This user maintains a LiveJournal  as @Rindis. This user wastes far too much time editing Wikipedia.

Rindis is a too-busy person with interests in history, science-fiction, and gaming as well as being an all around general geek.

The name doesn't really mean anything. But it's handy, pronouncable, and allows me to use the same user name on all the various boards and the like I'm on. (Instead of being 'JamesL1352' on one and 'JamesL448' on another.)

...though Google does tell me that a 'Universal Rindis' is a type of lathe....

I have a sandbox where I have notes to remind me what I'd like to do/write up. And I need to remember to go through my sources to help with a few articles.
