I've decided to create an account and join the editing community of Wikipedia because I spend hours reading articles when I should be doing other things, so if I'm spending the time here I may as well contribute, right?

I've dabbled with wiki markup in the past, but not recently, so it's comforting to know that there are others in the community who are much more proficient in that area so I don't have to worry about it.
