About me edit
Born in Westflanders (WWI battlefields) from a flemish mother and a walloon father.
With all it can bring in terms of openness and richness, but also in constant search for identity and balance.
I was pissed off by the childish quarrels that have been ruining our beautiful country for decennia.
Fortunately, these troubled times seem to have somewhat calmed down since we have a center-right government.
Neither bourgeois, nor bohemian.
Multilingual self-made-man.
I am trying to approach the truth, or I should say the thruths.
In first instance, by trying myself to be true in what I do and say.
I wish to continue to search for the truth in myself, without ever believing that I hold it.
I wish to continue searching for the truth around me, avoiding to reclose myself in certainties.
Neither God, nor Master.
I am a sort of agnostic. The existence of a power that supasses us is most likely. I do not try to escape the interrogations that come with this assumption. But whatever the process and its possible outcomes, what difference does it make? This power is there, nobody can pretend it will change the world, or not. Even if you are devoted to it and practice the cults regularily.
Non conformist, ex-conscientious objector.
Ex-soixanthuitard n'ayant pas complètement viré de bord.
Wikipedia for me edit
Wikipédia is fascinating me.
It's not a cosmetic tool like Facebook.
I found tons of relevant information into it.
And if, at one occasion, I took for true something that is not, I think I will survive.
I am an occasional contributor/donator.
As a contributor I am mainly active in the French Wikipedia.
But as a user I mainly use the English Wikipedia.
Because the coverage is much larger and the verification maturity is ahead of the other languages.
I explore a lot using the links ans hence I sometimes find/correct a small trypo error.
I also add comments or questions in the "Discussion" pages.
I admit I did not read all recommendations before starting add contributions.
I go ahead by radar trying to adapt to the, mostly senseful, requirements.
I admire the admins, mediators and stewards that try keeping good order in the vessel.
Not an easy job. The gangrene of the Internet, is the lack of respect.
Friendly to all Wikipedians!
Pierre
