I adopted this screen name in 2002 after I married a woman with the same astrological sign (LEO) as myself, becoming Dos (2) Leos (lions).

For several years I designed and ran a website which was a website standards and ratings service for the betterment of amateur website design based on many criteria, from graphics quality and placement to the conciseness of HTML code. A website could rate between 1 and 5 stars, and sites were awarded level-specific high-end award graphics to display on their website, showing their design achievement. Website designers would then continually strive to create better websites to Achieve higher awards. This was all in the era of high-speed dial-up…56kbs!

I gained a tremendous amount of knowledge concerning website design while running the award site. After that, it became obvious to me that had to start my own website design company, so in 2005 I started SeeMyBizz MDM (Website Design & Management), which I ran successfully util 2019. when I decided to retire from it. Now retired, I love using the internet for my pleasure and personal betterment. I have found that there are many fantastic things about the internet. However, lying within the internet are some very bad and dark things as well.

On Wikipedia, I have found that there are at times things that need editing. From misspellings to grammatical mistakes - the littlest things, on up to making or suggesting major edits and inclusions, for clarity, and to convey information and ideas more accurately.

I try to make things better in my own very small way, if just making edits to articles to make them better, or easier to understand, and sometimes correcting mistakes and unfortunately, even correcting or deleting outright lies. The internet has become highly politicized in certain areas, and unfortunately one place where political agendas can be found is in services such as Wikipedia.

I do not base information as correct or incorrect based on a political belief, but on the voracity and honesty of the information given. I have and will continue to seek out true facts and correct sources of information when I edit or suggest edits, making the proper citations as needed for all readers to see the correct facts for themselves and not base what they read just on hearsay.
