As promised! Best complaints to the MONGO complaint board get awarded the Inflated Eagle Barnstar™! Sorry for the wikistalking you have endured...it just proves that you're popular and they aren't.--MONGO 21:50, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
Some facts about Mantanmoreland
The name. Why "Mantanmoreland"? Because I am distantly related to the realMantan Moreland. That's why! It's my tribute to a great and underappreciated actor. No, I'm not African-American, not that it matters. I suppose that, if one wanted to be precise, you could say I am of primarily Irish-American ancestry with some leavening thrown in.
My interests: See below.
I became involved in an editing war a couple of months ago. I have vowed, "Never again!"
I have the honor in my short career of having been stalked many times. The identity of this individual has been identified as an official of a company about whom I have made edits. Email me if you want to know who that person is!
My proudest contributions to date
One of my heroes, Monsignor John M. Oesterreicher, of sainted memory, a historical figure in Catholic-Jewish relations, had no article! It was an honor and privilege to commence that article.
Old movies, particularly film noir, and funky old novels interest me. I hope to make contributions to the project in these areas.
My professional interests mainly revolve around the securities industry and trading issues.
Religion. I am a "lapsed" Roman Catholic, but have an active interest in other religions and was, at one time, actively interested in reviving my Jewish heritage. I am of partially Jewish descent, and am proud of it.
Geopolitics. But my learning curve is steep, if that is the correct word.
New York City history. I was born in the 'burbs but lived in the Bronx while in college. The experience was transformative.
Ireland! I need say no more. Erin go bragh!
Biggest surprise to date
An article on the Efficient market hypothesis that didn't mention Burton Malkiel, its leading advocate, and an article on Burton Malkiel that didn't mention the EMH!
