Kevin L. Parkin → Kevin L.G. Parkin – The proper, (and most used), name for this specific person is "Kevin L.G. Parkin", rather than "Kevin L. Parkin", as hardly any resource pieces contain the annunciation that is used by Wikipedia. In short, a brief Google search is able to explain this better than any single resource could. Here is a sample source. DarthBotto_talk•cont 05:34, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support -- British people often have several forenames, not just two. Peterkingiron (talk) 12:32, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Change of employer[edit]

I have started my own company and am no longer employed at CMU/NASA. Per the Wikipedia policy on dealing with biographies of oneself, I have made some minimal direct edits to reflect this and am giving additional information for your consideration here:

The website of Parkin Research, the new company, is here: parkinresearch.com

In particular, http://parkinresearch.com/microwave-thermal-rockets/ gives a comprehensive overview of Microwave Thermal Rockets, which I am the inventor of. My new bio is located at http://parkinresearch.com/about/

In the coming months I intend to add additional information about the DARPA/NASA/ARFL MTLS Project once it has been cleared for public release.

Many thanks,

Kevin
