I'm not a newcomer ... but thanks anyway
Originally, I started creating and editing articles on here before most of the admins started on wikipedia. I quit wiki for a while due to junk that I did not think was appropriate from other editors. But little did I know, I was receieving junk from admins, power hungry types, not the helpful kind.
First, if you tangle with me for any reason, expect that I will not immediately reply. Because I do not make the mistakes you just made, you know who you are. And I will freely tell you about it so that everyone can see.
My POV is this way because, after bullying tactics I quit wiki editing. I came back on after a many year cool down period, and began rediting, only to find vindication, that those who were bugging me were bugging others and subsequently banned. I have never been banned, nor will I be suckered into an edit war.
You should also note, and you know who you are, I don't consider my edit as written in stone and cherish the people that correct my or anybody's additions in a constructive manner. But don't expect me to be a push-over in the face of Policy.
Oh, if you are the freight-train type, I will step in front of you and knock you off your tracks, especially if I think you are railroading another editor. But other than that, have a nice day, and consider looking before you leap. - Hard Raspy Sci

Tornadic discussions

Thanks for your contributions to Tornado. In case no one else had mentioned it, I just wanted to note that actually removing talk page comments is rather unusual. The best recommendation is actually to archive instead of deleting comments, when they are no longer needed and start to clutter up a page. Thanks again, Beland 23:42, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Further additions

I added red links to wind profiler and SODAR, as well as added LIDAR to the template listing. In time I hope to get around to improving the actual articles. There is a generic entry for sounding rockets that concentrates on vertically launched rokcets, although there are various kinds of rocketsondes used in the atmospheric sciences, some launched vertically from the surface, some horizontally from airplanes, etc. Evolauxia 22:18, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Hard Raspy Sci, I'm hoping you'll come by to look at this new project, especially because of your priority on accuracy and your interest in climate, env. tech, etc. We could really use your help! cheers, Cyrusc 00:29, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
