Joined the Wikipedia project in June 2006. Time flies....

I review books for many print and online publications. I'm a retired mineral exploration geologist, formerly based in Arizona and New Mexico, now living on the Central Coast of California. Served in the USNR, sometime after Adm. Farragut. Older than dirt.

Other interests/(semi?)-expertise:

  • Science fiction
  • SW US history and prehistory
  • Northern Mexico history and prehistory
  • Ethnographic art
  • Paleoclimates in the geologic record, and implications for modern climate change


The photographs and images featured here are among my favorites of those I've uploaded to Wikipedia. Click on them for the source, more information, and a full-size image.

  • Here's this list with the newest article first. Takes a while to load....
  • I'm also an active contributor of photos and other images at Commons. See here for details.

Substantial contributions to:

Gold dredge in the Klondike River, 1915.
  • This list is (pretty much) updated to 13 September 2009. It was getting too tedious to keep up with it, so I'm not updating it anymore.

Geology, mining, climate change

  • Ongoing Image Project: I'm going through the voluminous Robert Lavinsky mineral photo donation, and adding photos to appropriate articles. It's a big job -- but lots of pretty pictures. See User:Tillman/Favorite minerals for some samples.
