[edit] Bio Info

Date and place of birth?

Christopher, I would not at all be surprised to learn that you have at least checked out your own wikipedia entry before, so feel free to edit it to include whatever information about yourself you feel is relevant. Machine Man 15:14, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources

I'm wondering about the sources for this page. Some of it seems dubious. I wonder in particular about the "Ordained Baptist Minister" part. I also think that someone should go over and fact check the stuff about Milestone. Dwayne McDuffie has elsewhere debunked some extreme claims about Priests involvement in the founding of Milestone. Also I think he is normally billed now as "Christopher Priest" rather than "Priest"

Have a look at his website. (It won't let me cut and paste). It refers to him being a minister. -- Beardo 05:02, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] CP vs CP on CP

CP(I)'s account of the name-change seems very different, in particular as to whether the name-clash was inadvertent, or premeditated. [1] Are there any usable third-party sources on the circumstances, or are we stuck with "CP(I) said, CP(II) said"? Alai 04:38, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
