Hi everyone. I just joined Wikipedia June 2006, but have also been a major contributor to the Winnipedia project.

I'm known locally for my interest in a rapid transit system for Winnipeg, and maintain a resource website about Winnipeg Transit history. I've also had a strong interest for a long time about Canadian broadcasting history, and have collected much information about this since the early 1980s in the form of newspaper and magazine articles, pamphlets, etc...

I live in downtown Winnipeg and see all that happens there — the good and the bad. I read the Winnipeg Sun and Winnipeg Free Press on most days, but recently find more enjoyment reading BusinessWeek and USA Today.

I discovered that NBC Weather+ webcasts its network this summer and regularly watch the localized forecast for Minneapolis, MN, which is the closest large city to Winnipeg.

One of my favourite books is Knowlton Nash's The Microphone Wars, a history of the CBC.

In the future, I'd like to add greatly to the article on MTS, relating to its history and equipment. But this will wait until after I get bored writing about the other stuff I've done recently for Wikipedia.
