Mon nom est Vid (pas vraiment) et je réside en Thunder Bay, Ontario. J'ai un fascination bizarre avec les tortues et les cornichons pour des raisons inconnues. :)

[edit] Basics

I'm interested in language, urban planning, architecture, cartography, and whatnot. I spend most of my time fixing up articles about things in and around Thunder Bay, and correct the ocacsional spelling error. ;)

[edit] Projects

  • Improvements to the Thunder Bay article, including altering the order in which it's contents appear before reading an article stating not to do such a thing. :)
  • Improvements to other Northwestern Ontario related articles
  • Separating lists into columns, as I happen to think they just look better that way.
  • Banishing the evil white voids that live just to the right of lists.

[edit] "This user also rambles."

Indeed, my rambling has been a problem for some time. However unlike some people, it really isn't too bad when I am able to refine my work, such as in a typed environment like this one. Personally, I find typed environments more convenient. Unlike normal venues of the spoken word, one can view what he has said and make amendments to, hopefully, eliminate any if not all contradictions contained therein. Which brings me to an additional point - I also contradict myself. Well, I don't really contradict myself. More like, forget what was previously said, and then say something contrary to that, without knowing - usually about issues for which I have little passion - and example being the state of cheese in Japanese culture. Honestly, I could care less. However, I do care enough to know that it isn't really a major part of their diet. Similar to Native Americans, who did not drink milk from cattle, thus resulting in many, like myself (one eighth Anishinabe; One fourth Métis) being lactose intolerant. Not that it matters - one can get sufficient vitamins from elsewhere.

The previous paragraph being obvious proof that this user has a snap-to-grid problem.

[edit] The Rest

Boulevard Lake dam. Originally, this was going to be included in an article I am writing, but I decided against it. So that it did not go to waste, I have inserted it here.
