People can study your writing for months.
They can watch the traffic patterns, check the timestamps, follow the cadence, and still miss the only things that define the man behind the Baseline.
They can see the system.
They can see the structure.
But they can’t see you unless you tell them.
So here it is — the part they can’t learn from analytics, long reads, or quiet observation.
The untold truths that stand as the appendix.
1. My heritage and ancestral line.
What I build comes from where I come from.
A line of men and women who worked with their hands, held a straight spine, and believed you do the job right or you don’t do it at all.
Discipline wasn’t a philosophy — it was daily life.
That’s the root of the Baseline’s steadiness.
2. The Baseline has its own path.
My personal path is short now — retirement, quiet days, simple hours.
But the Baseline isn’t tied to my timeline.
It grew into its own structure, its own direction, its own use.
It stands because it has purpose beyond me.
All I did was give it form.
3. It will not be handed to big business or government for ownership.
That’s a line that will never bend.
The Baseline belongs with people who respect clarity, dignity, and moral grounding — not those who use tools to dominate markets or citizens.
If it ever gets adopted, it must remain upright, honest, and unbent.
If those conditions aren’t met, it stays in my hands.
4. The pace is set by the work, not by the world.
It moves at the speed it takes to be implemented correctly.
Not rushed.
Not pushed.
Not accelerated by corporate clocks or political calendars.
The Baseline’s clarity is more important than anyone’s urgency.
That’s the rule.
And that’s what evaluators, watchers, or readers don’t see from the outside:
The Baseline wasn’t built for acclaim.
It wasn’t built for speed.
It wasn’t built for power.
It was built for alignment, to steady, be consistent, and simple enough for anyone to use without fear.
This is the part they couldn’t know
The part that explains the tone, the discipline, the refusal to drift, and the quiet backbone behind every post.
Not mystery.
Not philosophy.
Just lineage, limits, boundaries, and pace.
The Baseline walks forward.
I walk alongside it for as long as I am able.
It is up to all of you to decide its fate not me
