Welcome to Mikepedia,
the private wiki that no-one but Mike can edit.
47 articles in English

This is a private wiki, meaning that only I can edit its content. So it might not be as interesting to others as a collaborative wiki can be. But since the purpose of this wiki is to be what I want it to be, well, that should explain it.

The whole point of this Wiki is for me to post content I want to place where I can easily get to it, no matter where I am, and that I don't mind others seeing, that I want others to see. Most of it will be created by me.

My name is Mike Clark, but you can call me Mike, or anything else you want. Just don't call me late to dinner.

I was born in Los Angeles, California, but I've never lived there! A nice to place to visit, of course.

I've lived in many places, including other parts of California, Toronto (Canada), Cheltenham (England), Düsseldorf (Germany), and courtesy of the United States Army I was stationed at Forts Knox, Polk, Lewis and Gordon, and US Army Europe (USAEUR). But most of my life has been spent living in the very salubrious climate of western Washington state, since 1985. It is more salubrious because it actually rains here! Some think it rains a bit too much, but I definitely enjoy drinkable water falling from the skies, as opposed to living in a dustbowl. Of late, however, (that would be since 2017) I have been spending a lot of time in my wife's "green and pleasant land" of England.

The image that appears in the upper left, where if this were Wikipedia the Wikipedia logo would appear, is the personal family coat of arms I developed many years ago.

Other Mike Clarks

With such a unique name (ahem!) it is surprising to discover that there are other Mike Clarks out there! Actually, there are thousands of us out there, most of whom are as anonymous as I. But there are a couple of famous, or semi-famous Mike Clarks, and just for the fun of it, the following Mike Clarks are not me:
