  1. Go to my userinfo page.
  2. Pick one person on my friends list you're curious about.
  3. Comment with their username.
  4. And I will tell all about them*.
  5. Now post this in your journal, see who is curious about whom.

*DISCLAIMER: No guarantees that there will be much info for some, and there will never be anything mentioned that is overly personal. I promise.

And I should add: many of the users on my friends list I know only casually, so there'll not likely be much for anyone.

Ah, zompist! He's Mark Rosenfelder.

I first came across him because he maintained the FAQ for the Usenet newsgroup sci.lang. I later returned because of the constructed languages and the virtual world (Almea) he created -- first for a D&D campaign and later fleshed out considerably. I was "into" Verdurian (his most well-developed languages) for quite a while but haven't found/made time for Almeology in the past few years.

I don't know why he calls himself zompist. I think it was a handle from a role-playing game, but I don't know whether it has a meaning or not. His domain is zompist.com (after the provider that hosted his site, tezcat.com, closed up shop, he got himself a domain name of his own so that the URL would be stable).
