I, Brectuary, registered on August 8th, 2008 after reading an article by James Gleick (in the Wall Street Journal) about a Wikipedian meeting in Alexandria, Egypt; the article captured my imagination and commitment, especially in its mention of Alexandria's Great Library and Borges' Library of Babel.
