Telsa's homepage

" So who am I? Good question. Born in 1969, I grew up in Newcastle upon Tyne in the north-east of England, but now I have lived in Swansea on the coast of south Wales for almost as long.

I arrived on the net comparatively early (my saved email goes back to 1990) and stuck around. I used to contribute quite a lot to various efforts on the net, most of it to do with do with free software or with GNOME. I still use Gnome and Linux and the rest, but I rarely contribute. I got tired of the fractious mailing lists and the attitude that requiring contributors to be polite would be curtailing their personal liberty. Life is too short. I still lurk on the Linuxchix mailing lists, which do require people to be both polite and helpful. Life is far more peaceful as a result. "
