How does Drupal differ from Wordpress. I mess with websites endlessly but my 
brain balks at programming. I can do simple css styles but that's about it. 
Wordpress works for me, but I don't think there is a good calendar module for 
it.

And unlike a Wiki, it is harder for other people to enter information. We have 
a GoogleSites wiki that almost anyone can  update. The page for adding info to 
Wordpress is a bit confusing — first the person has to decide between a page 
and a post. That is confusing.
