I presume this is the profile page?

I'm a Brit, in Uganda 1984-2005 (also spending time in Kenya, Rwanda and south Sudan), Karamoja 1984-1991. Now living in north Wales, UK.

Languages and etymology fascinate me, but I'm not so good at them. I had to become a Wiki user so I could put in a request for a page on the ngaKarimojong language. I am surprised no-one has written one, but I am not really competent to do so though I still can speak some short sentences. Of course there is lots to find by doing a Google search, but no online Dictionary that I could find.

I started a Karamoja Group on Facebook:  - you have to login to Facebook first to view the page. New members welcome.

I also have interest in the Rwanda Genocide and preventing further genocides (including stopping the ongoing one in Darfur). If interested you may check out my talk and discussion on Rwanda on and also the Facebook group "Genocide Awareness" (login first).
