I've been around here for awhile, occasionally contributing when I think it would be of value. I like to think I am humble enough to have refrained from contributing until I fully understood the purpose of this site, but egotistical enough to believe that I can write better than some of the users who have contributed much more than I have. And that's not to mention my ability to recognized biased writing and fix it. But enough about me; let's talk a bit about me.
