[edit] NOTICE: Regarding my Wikipedia status

At this time, after a FAC, I am extremely aggravated at Wikipedia. I now understand and agree with its critics. I currently do not plan on returning to Wikipedia. However, I will return in a few weeks to revaluate my situation. It does not appear that I will return. Thank you to all of those on this horrible, not-so-tranparent website that have made it a little better. Do not take any action based on these messages yet, as I will revaluate the situation in a few weeks. It does not appear that there is much hope for my return, though.

I originally began editing in April 2007, I began editing alot by June and July, all of these edits done as an anon. After my IP address changed several times, I finally became so aggravated that I finally registered. I am most certainly glad I did. I am now, tragically, a Wikiholic. I check my watchlist at least 10 times a day. I also maintain an account at commons under the same name. Though addicted to Wikipedia, I have only created three pages, Special weather statement, Marion, Illinois Tornado Outbreak, which appeared on the Main Page under "did you know", and Spring 2008 Midwest floods. Although I also created templates for several counties in Kentucky. I encourage everyone to visit another fine Wiki that I work on, the Illinois-Indiana-Kentucky Tri-State Wiki. We urgently need more help there.

[edit] Favorite weather

As you can see in my userboxes, I love damp, cloudy, rainy days. I do however like a good severe weather outbreak with a wave of supercells followed by a squall line.
