Pleonic, otherwise known as J A Carter, is a Wikipedia contributor, in addition to which he also has a life. He's been mucking about on Wikipedia for years but he really doesn't remember when he started. He writes an odd little blog called A Few Paragraphs and randomly tweets under the mysterious tweeting name of @pleonic at Twitter, where tweets happen. Just in case anybody ever decides to use Google + he's also got a little place at +MrPleonic.

Early Life

Pleonic was born in Indiana back when the world was new, and roved and rambled throughout this great land of ours in the days of his youth. He has stated that his early life was rather like Leave it to Beaver and involved him in several dangerous escapades that nevertheless ended well^{[citation needed]}. He has been friends with several dogs and at least two cats.

After attending all the usual schools Pleonic moved to Sunny Southern California and obtained a Theology degree. This naturally led him into careers in Mortgage Banking, Accounting, Credit Counseling, Computer Programming, and Ballet.

Current Life

Pleonic lives contentedly with his wife, children, cat and step-cat in Conglomeration, Texas. At present he divides his time between working as a writer/researcher, learning stuff, and seeing as many things as possible 'before they flare and fade forever.'

Areas of Expertise

His main area of expertise is being Pleonic. In the process, Pleonic has attained some level of proficiency in History (particularly 1st & 2nd century roman culture, American civil war, and, increasingly, early middle ages), Christianity, Christian History, Historical Christianity, most English Bible translations, the biographies of certain people (particularly US Presidents), Theology, theologians/Bible scholars including N T Wright,Thomas Oden, John Dominic Crossan, Marcus Borg, Karl Barth, John Wesley, Thomas Aquinas, St. Augustine, C S Lewis (yes, I know he's not technically a theologian), certain movies, TV shows of the '60's and '70's (particularly Gilligan's Island and Star Trek), films about Jesus, the early space program (both US and USSR flavors), Bugs Bunny cartoons, Gumby, mortgage banking, debt management, software testing, SQL Servers, Programming, and is a devotee of the Doctor (but by no means proficient because no one can be an expert on the Doctor, not even the Doctor).
