Hi, I'm not a fan of disclosing a lot of personal information over the internet but I can tell you that I live in Arizona (but not in Phoenix thank goodness!) and my "official" nickname is Nebular. The nickname predates my interest in Astronomy so it has nothing to do with Nebulae or the Nebular theory but rather comes from the name of a character in the Calvin and Hobbes comic strip.

I can also say that I adamantly refuse to display more than 15 Userboxes on my user page.

[edit] My contributions

Despite having used Wikipedia as a resource for several years now, I only began contributing to (became addicted to) Wikipedia in May 2006. Most of my contributions are in the following fields:

• Astronomy
• Geology
• U.S. National Parks, Monuments, and Historic Sites
• United States Geography
• Arizona in general: geography, cities, towns, highways, landmarks.
• Whatever else strikes me as interesting

In my spare time, I like to voice my opinion at featured picture candidates, help revert vandalism, and welcome new users.
