"Knowledge will forever govern ignorance, and a people who mean to be their own governors, must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives. A popular government without popular information or the means of acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce or a tragedy or perhaps both" - James Madison

Affiliations and Interests with Potential WP:COI

[edit]

I am a software developer who blends Cowboy_coding practices with disciplined design.

I have a strong interest in vaccination issues from the POV of the freedom of each individual to examine the evidence of safety/efficacy along with risks/benefits and then to choose for him/herself. I became a volunteer for NVIC as a matter of personal conscience. I am not for or against vaccines. Please do not label me as anti-vaccine.

My volunteer work is the creation and maintenance of the Vaccine Ingredients Calculator open source project. I understand that this may create the perception of WP:COI, and so I'm learning to tread carefully (although I certainly did not start out that way - ooops!) because I believe that what I've struggled to learn can contribute to improved, fact-based articles and that this process will contribute to deepening my own understanding.
