My favorite quote:

I'm a pessimist about probabilities; I'm an optimist about possibilities.

Lewis Mumford (1895-1990)

Um, well, and then there's changes.

Lately I'm often over at Greek Wikisource

Counting coup and celebrating potlatch combined

In-progress

• el:Μεταγραφή:The New Testament in the original Greek (1894).djvu

This is Scrivener's 1894 Greek Textus Receptus and much referenced; el:Χρήστης:Αντιγόνη started this work awhile ago; strangely, upon checking the pages that are done, our copy of the transcribed text looks more correct than most other copies on the Internet; I am thinking we could get various sites to switch to our copy as demonstrably better.

• Index:The Books of Chronicles (1916).djvu

Proofread near complete; need to redo verse numbering, fix section titles, some tables, a general cleaning; 425pp., plus 7 pp maps not yet addressed;
