Hello, and welcome to my Wikipedia Userpage. While I have been a registered Wikipedian for going on 7 years now, I've really only been actually participating since October 2007 with a break in 2010. I am a member of several Wikiprojects including WikiProject Human Spaceflight, WikiProject South Carolina, WikiProject Georgia and the WikiProject Utah. I jump around from one subject to another depending on my current interest, (which can change quickly) working what looks like it needs help. I generally stick with subjects that I love like Rocketry, Spaceflight, Electronics, Robotics, Geography and the states of Illinois, South Carolina, Utah and Georgia.

In the short time I've been here, I have found that Wikipedia is quite addicting, specially for an information junkie like myself. I can spend several hours a day here, either working on an article or just reading. So am I a Wikipediholic? According to the Wikipediholism test I am "really overdoing myself. I need to take a wikibreak for a few days." I scored a 3331 on the test. How about you, what is your score?

2023–2024 Sundhnúkur eruptions

A series of volcanic eruptions has been ongoing in the Reykjanes Peninsula, near the town of Grindavík, Iceland, since 18 December 2023. The eruptions, of which there have been seven so far, began after an intense series of earthquakes in November 2023. Although localised, seismic and volcanic activity has caused significant disruption across the western part of the peninsula, especially for the town of Grindavík. This Icelandic Meteorological Office photograph, taken on 18 December 2023, shows the first eruption in the series, in the Sundhnúksgígar crater chain.
