I'm a physicist working in oil services, specifically NMR sensors. I know about a lot of other things as well. I've apparently had a Wikipedia account since January 2004, hard to believe it's already been years. At that time I used my full name, but in the hopes of leaving a somewhat smaller digital searchability footprint connected with my name, I have changed it.

The name of the color represented by 0x0077BE is "Ocean Boat Blue". I picked it because it was easy to remember and not particularly unpleasant. I generally make minor edits or comment in Talk pages about things, because I'm not bold. I will often surf around Special:Random to wade through stubs and learn new things. One thing I have learned is that there are a lot of cricket players.

Articles
Here are some articles I'd like to work on expanding:
 * Low field NMR - Needs to have Zero field NMR and Earth's field NMR merged into it, then expanded. (SB)
 * Nuclear magnetic resonance logging - It's already off to a good start but I can expand considerably. (SB)
 * White-collared Starling - I have started expanding this article, could use a recording and more information.
 * Poromitra crassiceps - Started this article. Unfortunately there is very little information out there on this species, and what is available is often actually about Poromitra curilensis.
 * Bankhead, Atlanta - Started cleaning this up randomly. Seems like it has some potential.
 * Spring Branch, Houston - This is very nearly Good Article quality. Needs a bit of copyediting and unfortunately may of the citations are now broken.

Galleries
Here are some galleries of photos I've taken or figures made:
 * World War II Medals - Photos of my grandfather's World War II Medals
 * Houston National Register of Historic Places - Places on the National Register of Historic Places, taken as part of the Summer of Monuments 2014 (mostly houses)
 * Houston Parks - Parks in Houston, TX.
 * User:0x0077BE/Code - Code samples (used to generate figures)

Spoken Articles
To practice my audio recording and editing skills (and because I am a big fan of audio content), I participate in WikiProject Spoken Wikipedia, both in producing pronunciations and in producing spoken versions of Wikipedia articles. Here are some files I've produced and a few articles I'd like to produce.

Completed

 * Deepwater Horizon (Listen)
 * Fuck: Word Taboo and Protecting Our First Amendment Liberties (Listen)
 * Hurricane Claudette (2003) (Listen)
 * Sega v. Accolade (Listen)

To Do
Here are some articles (mostly FAs, as they tend to be stable), that I am likely to record:


 * Ontario Highway 402
 * On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog (needs GA review, heavy copyediting)
 * GRB 970228
 * Makemake (dwarf planet)
 * New York State Route 311
 * Fiji parrotfinch
 * Snoring rail
 * 1689 Boston revolt
 * Steinway & Sons
