From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm a (recently unemployed) chemist from beautiful Kalamazoo, MI, USA, and an alumnus of Kalamazoo College. Lately I find that I have managed to become a graduate student in Madison, WI.

I have been contributing to Wikipedia since, at the latest, June 6th 2002. There may have been other contributions prior to then, but I didn't have a user name and so have trouble tracking them down based on memory. I actually got aroung to getting a user name at the very end of 2003.

Prior to adopting a username, I'm about 99% certain that I made edits under (at least) the following IP addresses in 2002: 146.113.69.242, 67.38.174.30, and 217.52.6.221. In the case of the first address, I managed to make the second edit ever to the article on Kalamazoo. A point of pride. Less of a point of pride is the part where the aforementioned edit was childish boosterism of my alma mater.

My primary article activities concern my hometown, the state of Michigan, and NASA. My interests are broad, however, and I tend to dabble a bit everywhere. I like making the occasional map.

[edit] Maps I Have Made

The more recent ones, I hope, show a certain improvement in technique. Just putting these up reminds me that I really need to go back and make some of the old ones look better.
