Hmm, Hello. This is nice, I think the second page I ever had to code as a user-page, so fun fun. I'm Russell and live in Clitheroe, and go to Clitheroe Royal Grammar School Sixth Form. Hmm so far so good, more me, and less ipsum next time...
[edit] School
I'm doing A-levels in Maths with mechanics, Physics, Computing and Chemistry. Although im better at the computing than the maths, which is why my userbox is only Pythagorean and not a strange sequence.
I made this account because I found myself making a lot of small edits to Wikipedia, mostly spelling and grammar errors or sentences which were badly structured. Eventually I moved up to correcting small factual mistakes and updating facts. Like everyone who will read this, I love Wikipedia and sibling projects. Robert Wilensky once said:
We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true.
Which I believe is very true, instead we get Wikipedia, a collaboration of literally millions of people, specialists across every field contributing to organising knowledge that is freely accessible and comprehensive. A voluntary movement of monumental proportions to distribute knowledge to the masses. It to me it seems remenicent of Google's pledge to organise all of the world's information.

Typi non habent claritatem insitam; est usus legentis in iis qui facit eorum claritatem. Investigationes demonstraverunt lectores legere me lius quod ii legunt saepius. Claritas est etiam processus dynamicus, qui sequitur mutationem consuetudium lectorum. Mirum est notare quam littera gothica, quam nunc putamus parum claram, anteposuerit litterarum formas humanitatis per seacula quarta decima et quinta decima. Eodem modo typi, qui nunc nobis videntur parum clari, fiant sollemnes in futurum.
