When my mother passed away 12 years ago, I set up a wiki for her: http://wiki.keithl.com/CathyLofstrom About 40 family and friends contributed pages or info. All I paid the Oregonian for was a picture and a url. Some of the contributors were 80 year old grannies; wiki ain't rocket science. Her pastor used a large trove of information and anecdotes to write the memorial service. Paul deserves this much. If anyone here volunteers to manage the wiki, I can provide space on one of my servers. There are more wikispammers now, so the management task is more involved, and I don't have time for that. If nobody else does so, I will purchase paulnelson.org from godaddy and add an instance to my moinmoin wikifarm. Others must take it from there. Ask yourself whether watching TV tonight means more to you than Paul did. Contact me off the list. Somebody send me a picture, and I can seed the start page.
