I really love learning about stuff - all kinds of stuff. this place is a haven of information and collective knowledge/learning to a degree that I don't think humanity has ever even fathomed! I would love to see it become more interactive to stimulate man's impulse and desire to learn and understand the world around him as well as himself. I want to do whatever I can, utilize whatever skills, abilities, expertise and resources that I am able to make available to further aid in the development of that.

Sadly, what I see on Wikipedia a majority of the time are fiefdoms splinter cells of terror and abuse as well as harsh and uncalled for treatment of new members by older and more experienced 'administrators" and "bureaucrats" who are supposed to set an example and act as ambassadors of good will, welcoming others into the community - ridiculing and in some cases cyber-stalking them.

It would be nice if there were some sort of actually Leadership structure as well as some checks and balances to prevent the inevitable breakdown that occurs in these types of situations via the Psychology of Power.

My hope is that I can bring some slight bit integrity and unbiased points of view in these situations so that we make all discover the benefit of explore and sharing new information and knowledge together.
