This user is a member of WikiProject Wikify. There is currently a massive backlog of articles (over 14,000!) for Wikification, and we need your help! If you have a spare moment, please visit the project page and wikify an article, or tell your friends about the WikiProject.

Welcome! A friend Ravedave introduced me to Wikipedia in late November, 2006, and I've been hooked ever since. I've learned an awful lot from the various and thorough articles found on this wiki and am excited about the concept of a user community editable encyclopedia. I find myself wishing every webpage was a wiki.
