I'm new to wikis, but I've been using computers since the mid 1980s. I hope to work on the edible plant areas within Appropedia.
Although I was born and raised in the US, I've lived in the UK for a number of years. It's a strange coincidence that like Yeahvle, I got rid of my car in 1999.
Among other things, I taught economics for a few years, and then taught computer applications. I was even a programmer (databases) in the old days, before graphical user interfaces!
I was lucky enough to get an allotment near my home in the north of England in January 2010, and am learning more about vegetable and fruit gardening in a climate much different to that of the US.
