My handle (Roadmaster) came from the old Test Drive video game. I want to live here.

Wikipedia is NOT a democracy.

I'm from Mexico, although I currently live in Montreal, Canada. I'm able to help with any Mexico-related articles, of which I've contributed a few myself (see below). I'm also available to help with translation between spanish and english.

Nice articles. The ones with asterisk I started, the other ones I've added stuff to:

• French Press *
• Van Jacobson *
• Van Jacobson TCP/IP Header Compression *
• TAESA *
• World Trade Center México * (this one I'm particularly proud of; my only shame is I never found the time to take the picture myself).
• Polyforum Cultural Siqueiros *
• Torre Latinoamericana * (I can't believe I actually started this one! WHEE!)
• Pesero *
• Flans *
• Torre Mayor *
• Metro General Anaya
• Estadio Azteca

Also I have taken and uploaded some pictures, under the GFDL for use on Wikipedia and related projects.

Picture of the day

Thecacera pennigera, also known as the winged thecacera, is a species of sea slug in the family Polyceridae. It has a cosmopolitan distribution, being found in temperate waters on either side of the North Atlantic Ocean, in the Mediterranean Sea, around South and West Africa, Brazil, Japan, Korea, Pakistan and more recently in Australia and New Zealand. There is a significant difference in colouring between Atlantic populations and Pacific specimens, however. Thecacera pennigera has a typical adult length between 15 millimetres (0.6 in) and 30 millimetres (1.2 in), featuring a short, wide head with two lateral flaps and two sheathed olfactory organs called rhinophores. The body is wedge shaped, being wide at the front and ending in a slender foot with a lateral keel on either side. The general colour of the body is translucent white and the upper side is covered with orange splotches and small black spots. Like other sea slugs, T. pennigera is a hermaphrodite with internal fertilisation and a mating mechanism whereby pairs of animals exchange packets of sperm. This T. pennigera was photographed in the Mar Piccolo of Taranto, Italy.Photograph credit: Roberto Strafella
