My first edit here was on January 15, 2005, and to be honest, it doesn't seem like I've been at this for that long. However, it is – and in addition to the above accreditation – I have been granted Admin status by the community.

I have accounts on Meta, Commons, Wikisource, and Wikipedia, as well as a few on other languages for Interwiki.

This, infobox template for disasters and accidents, is a suggested infobox listing articles tagged with the category Disasters and accidents, tell me what you think on my talk page.

[edit] My Contributions

Here is a list of some of the articles Those listed are ones where I've started them and done a reasonable amount of the work. I do not list work on articles started by others unless all their contributions were removed. The list is not regularly updated anymore, so many articles are missing.

[edit] Quotes

"Take your t.v. tube and eat it

And all that phony stuff on sports

And all those unconfirmed reports

You know I watch that rotten box

Until my head begin to hurt

From checkin' out the way

The newsmen say they get the dirt

Before the guys on channel so and so"

  • Frank Zappa, from Trouble Every Day


"There is a minority of intellectual pacifists, whose real though unacknowledged motive appears to be hatred of western democracy and admiration for totalitarianism. Pacifist propaganda usually boils down to saying that one side is as bad as the other, but if one looks closely at the writings of the younger intellectual pacifists, one finds that they do not by any means express impartial disapproval but are directed almost entirely against Britain and the United States"

  • George Orwell
