User:Thingg

I love this site and I still read it and refer to it a lot but as life has gone on, I just don't have the time to devote to editing and participating in the community as I used to, especially in 2007-2011. I'll be around occasionally, but it's become increasingly clear to me that I probably won't be able to be very involved in the future. I learned a lot here about how to come to an agreement with people who do not follow the same worldview as myself and I also honed my research and writing skills, which was and is a tremendous help in both college and as my career has progressed after I graduated. Below is my user page as it was when I was more active if you are interested. I wish you the best. Thingg^⊕⊗ 12:49, 17 November 2017 (UTC)
