User:Pseudo-Richard

I've changed my username but I'm still me. If you want to know why I chose this new name, consider Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite. Maybe centuries from now, scholars will debate who was the real Richard and who was the pseudo-Richard. But probably not... Sorry but I'm not much interested in having a pretty user page. I prefer to spend my time editing articles or discussing issues on Talk Pages or Wikiproject pages. Feel free to leave me a message on my Talk Page. I log on almost daily and am active several times during the day. However, I may take a 2-3 day WikiBreak from time to time so please be patient if I don't respond right away.
