From Ethan's man page

""" When I was twelve years old, I swore a mighty oath to myself that I'd get off this ball of rock before I died- and I even had some harebrained schemes to do so, probably inspired by to much R. A. Heinlein. As I got a little older, I realized that it wouldn't do to start spreading humanity about the solar system without significant changes in the way we interact with each other, the way we work together, and the way we deal with conflict. This led me to an exploration of the basic issues, like why are we here, why am I here, what am I anyway, what is the stuff that existence is of, and other abstract playthings. I've come to some conclusions, but the most important of these is that I contend that existence is communication. Of course, I had already nurtured a love affair with computers, from my original TI-99/4a (with voice synthesis!) to the Original Macintosh, that had flowered into a typographic and guerilla publishing bent. Meeting the love of my life online, I moved to Portugal to be with her. The sysadmin at the place I worked said "hey, we've got this big printer, print what you like"- and so, over two thousand pages of printed standards later, I was a web machine. Zope was a natural: it mapped to my thinking better than any other web tools I've ever encountered. After I built one site with Zope, I was determined to use it to my own ends- but there was no Zope hosting provider to meet my needs: Thus, imeme.net was born. Life has taught me that communication and community are the two most important things I can possibly be working on. As a Zopista Community Liason, I get to focus full time on helping our community grow and thrive. I was born in Washington, D.C., but moved away at 6 months of age. Working with Digital Creations brings me back full circle: A new beginning that incorporates all I've learned.
