User talk:Wiki206Seattle

OK I'm new and what is this? User talk page? Really; I've just created my new account, I've navigated 'here' and... after reading the entire page I remain totally baffled as to where and what 'User talk' links to, addresses and does! The Newbie marooned, on User Talk Island! And here we go again: 4 tildes? Huh? Wiki206Seattle (talk) 23:41, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
