Editor

As the former marketing manager for hydrochloric acid in Akzo Nobel, largest European producer of it, I still have a weakness for technical information about that product. I'm proud to say that that wikipage has become a Featured Article. I'll do some more Chemicals WikiProject work.

Linux

The maintenance of the BogoMips mini-Howto, starting already in 1993, is another activity. It is mainly under the Linux Document Project that I do that work, and a summary is included here in the Wikipedia.
For the rest I just like this encyclopedia. I have even added a little bit about Colonel Sir Harold Wilberforce Clifton, the renowned sleuth, that you can read about on my own Clifton website.
Met vriendelijke groeten, Wim van Dorst
