About me

I am a (male) student in New York City. On Wikipedia, I am primarily interested in articles relating to mathematics, science (particularly chemistry and physics), computers, aviation, and classical music. Please contact me if I make a mistake or if you have any comments.

I started editing Wikipedia in February 2006, and in August 2006 I became an administrator.

As far as other things I do around here, I operate MetsBot (contribs), am a member of the bot approvals group, help write the Technology Report for the Signpost, and do a few other things as well.

I also maintain a blog at http://blog.mets501.com/, if you're interested.
