This is my wiki, so I'm allowed some ego writing...

The following is a revision of my writeup/summary listing the ways I've been described over the years. Originally written around 1996...

there was no word to describe him... then someone of importance said
'patient' ... and he was patient... 'well trained' was the thoughts of one
who could not guess his age... another said 'weird' ...and weird he was,
though he prefered 'eccentric', and tended to use 'erratic' ...some time
later another said 'animated', but even this did not fully describe him...
'you remind me of Kramer' someone remarked... and this was discussed and
agreed upon by those present... but still it did not tell the full 
story... an open book in a closed library with people at the doors 
wanting to get in to read it... that seemed to be accurate, but only in the 
right context somehow... other words drifted into usage. 'cute' become a 
trend not yet ended, and finally even 'charisma' cropped up. And somehow 
this struck him as strange. years came and went, and 'wierd... but in a
good way' became a description he used himself half jokingly... and then
finally "ageless" - which he took as the highest compliment yet. 

but maybe he will never be fully or accurately described...  maybe a
simple 'earth native' is the most accurate that is possible, simply by
virtue of not really saying _anything_ at all...
