About
Received the nickname 'No Step' as a new lineman at an airport. No damage, just good natured. Some of my interests are music, films, programming, aircraft(real, model, R/C), engines, Wikipedia, etc..

Reasonable and rational person. If I see something that could use: a fix; correction; or addition; then there's a chance I'll work on it. If I butt heads with one of the many zealous admins or editors (some should simply be called 'Deleters'), then I'll copy articles + my changes to a sandbox.

From time to time, I'll donate some time and a little money toward keeping Wikipedia updated, open, and free.
