Hi, I'm Gateman, and obviously you're not :)


About me

First off the basics, I'm a guy and I live in Fremont, California. You don't get to know my real name however, unless you want to guess it. I'll give you a hint, it's a book of the bible. First one to guess it gets a complimentary barnstar.

I derive my username from one of my favorite TV shows Stargate SG-1 and the year it started. I'm a highway, traffic light, lighthouse, soccer, travel buff who has contributed mainly to road related articles, stadium articles, and ligthhouses. However I also worked for Apple Computer and sometimes will drop in and touch up those articles as well.

I've also been a scifi and space buff for years, hence I modify those articles from time to time as well along with several comic book related articles such as Serenity (film), Star Trek, Sliders, Stargate SG-1, etc....

And finally I'm a rabid fan of the San Diego Padres, Lake Elsinore Storm, and baseball in general as well as the San Jose Earthquakes. I usually can be found tinkering with those articles as well.

I also participate in the Wikipedia:WikiProject NASCAR.

My First Page

My first attempt at an entry was the oft deleted Systemwars.com article. Sadly it didn't go over so well and quite frankly it was crap. But I got better at this whole Wikipedia thing :)
