My interest vary across the lines of computers, philosophy, politics, religion, education, economics, and much more. My opinions are strong, and my personality has been described as gruff, rude, and harsh. I don't seek to offend, but I'm far from politically correct. I don't enjoy free-typing[a] content so my edits are usually edits not major rewrites. I'm more than happy to offer input and opinion, as well as to listen to your's.

I think the most important part of Wikipedia is Wikipedia:Neutral point of view.

I believe we as editors are at our best when we realize on any subject worthy of a Wikipedia article we are limited because we/our:

  • Don't know all the facts
  • Perspective is limited by our location, culture, and place in history
  • Are biased (we don't have a NPOV)
  • Make mistakes
  • Make assumptions
  • should extend the forgiveness and understanding that we expect when we mess up to others

Ain't
This user believes that ain't is a proper word to use in place of a contraction of a verb and a pronoun. Ain't that right?
