Due to occasional stalker problems (none current), I prefer not to use my real name in a searchable venue, so I pinched 'Calair' from a favourite roleplaying character.

(There was more stuff about me here, but I deleted it on the grounds of probable dullness; if you're really curious, that's what the page history is for.)

Lots of minor stuff, especially spelling/grammar. Major contributions:

*], ], ], and ] - restructured & reduced duplication between these sites; attempted to steer towards NPOV on the "refractive surgery is the work of Satan" issue.

*] - rewrote much of this for NPOV, added policy information.

*] - edited for length and focus. Though it's since begun to expand again.

*] - created from scratch. Needs more content, as do related pages.

*] - added discussion of amateur forms (especially net-based writing).


I had more about myself and my Misplaced Pages contributions here, but let's face it, who actually wants to know that stuff?

I'm a professional geek, of the maths/engineering variety. I work in the vision correction industry, but I don't post much on that subject - partly because a lot of my professional knowledge is commercial-in-confidence, but mostly because I come to Misplaced Pages for a break from work.

Due to occasional stalker problems (none current), I prefer not to use my real name in a searchable venue, so I pinched 'Calair' from a roleplaying character.
