Knogeek is the online moniker of Alan Webb, of Richmond, Va., and of Dyme Tech, LLC. The name comes from his youngest sister's assertion that he is a "knowledge geek". Mr. Webb is completing his term of service as an Americorp Volunteer. His interest in Wikipedia is in posting some of his family history. His father was an electrical engineer building computers in the pioneering days of the technology. His grandmother, Catherine Webb, was active in Berkeley, California politics and an early member of the Berkeley Food Co-op. His grandfather, Wells Webb, was a chemical engineer who was blessed with a talent for tinkering and tolerant friends who would fund his hobby without asking too many times whether any of this stuff would ever be done.
