In August 2015, I got a little job editing Wikidelphia, because Wikidelphia needed someone to pay attention to the whole project in a sustained way. One experience that qualifies me to do this job is that I started and have been gradually expanding another reference source. It's called Study Love, and it's about what I consider, and what many Near Death Experiencers call, the most important force in the entire universe: spiritual love.

Since 2011, I have volunteered at many events throughout the Phila-NJ area. Some of the ones I do regularly--and I hope you'll attend or support these--are:

Macy's Family Fun Days at the African-American Museum in Philadelphia, a monthly where I set up and run a "toy zone", a table full of toys from my own large collection. I get a kick out of the fact that I'm often the only white guy there.
Philadelphia Reading Olympics, a multi-day, multi-venue annual event where I act like a game show host, asking schoolchildren questions about books they've read. The organizers suggest that volunteers think in terms of Jeopardy, but I make it zany, complete with sound effects and as many laughs as I can extract.
West Park Arts Fest, where I act like a concierge in the Children's Pavilion, making sure visitors, performers, and exhibitors have whatever they need throughout the day.
Maple Shade Holiday Festival, where I've usually overseen the sales of feed for the petting zoo.

Something else I do on my personal time is provide five daily Twitter news-and-views services, in:

@FruitNJ "I tweet about the fruit of the Spirit, hoping it'll help me bear some."
@LingFan1 For linguistics, the scientific study of human language. Surprisingly, this is by far the most popular.
@SayNo2BigGay Against the homosexualist agenda. I attack arguments, not persons.
@NetMan3 Against malaria. "Wild about the idea of covering entire countries with nets!"
@LifeNetNews Against poverty. "Continuing the mission of Life-Net News: Covering Poverty Widely In A Net Of Many Voices Since 1997."

Life-Net News was sometimes monthly, sometimes weekly. I selected stores from the press and elsewhere about poverty, regardless @RUCamFan For Rutgers University-Camden. "Rutgers-Camden has done so much for me! I'm massively grateful!"

From 2007 to 2014, I did clerical work, website maintenance, and various other tasks at Nonprofit Technology Resources.

Paul, thanks for writing up your personal experience at the Franklin Institute! Stan 17:31, 7 March 2011 (EST)
