Hello,
I'm a retired electrical engineer, mad scientist, and local fire hazard living in Woodridge, Illinois in the US. After 32 years at AT&T and Bell Laboratories, In 2002, I decided to go into business for myself as an engineering consultant and entrepreneur (Stoneridge Engineering). I also have some "interesting" hobbies, such creating "Captured Lightning" inside acrylic blocks (Lichtenberg figures), shrinking coins with ultrastrong magnetic fields, collecting older and out of print technical books, researching dielectric breakdown phenomena, playing with Tesla Coils and other high voltage devices, and hunting mushrooms (yes, to eat!). Our company motto is "Wreaking Havoc with Electrons for over 40 Years!" - please visit us at Teslamania site --Bert 17:56, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia! I've just noticed the last few articles you've made referencing Lichtenberg figures. Just thought you might want to check out Wikipedia:Redirect for a better way to do those. --InShaneee 16:13, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)
