A little about me

I teach elementary school math, which means I have lots of time on my hands during summer vacation. This summer, a lot of that time is being wasted utilized here at Wikipedia.

I stumbled across an entry in a friend's LiveJournal about Wikipedia, and dropped by to take a look. One of the first articles I looked at contained a poorly worded sentence. I fixed it. Soon, I found a typo. I fixed it. Thus began my addiction.... I've created a few articles, but the bulk of my time is spent fixing spelling, grammar, de-orphaning articles, and fixing those links that direct to disambiguation pages. I also Live To Copyedit.

Since everyone here must have a Controversial Opinion on something, here is mine: I hate the cut/paste jobs from the 1881 Household Cyclopedia.
