but grasping snowflakes
fallen on outstretched fingers
wants infinite forgiveness.

About this editor

  • My edit count as BusterD, and as BusterD public; my administrator stats are here
  • Pages I wanted to construct or improve can be found here
  • I prefer to discuss most changes on article talk pages for fullest transparency of process.
  • A page containing analogies I saw used (some by myself), can be seen here.
  • Even this page has been vandalized 34 times. Thanks, vandalfighters!
