I'm Olof Hellman, materials scientist by education and computer programmer by trade. I'm contributing to pages dealing with Materials Science, such as diffusion Atom Probe crystallographic defects amorphous solid ion implantation

Still getting used to wikipedia conventions, and having a lot of fun with this. I love the 'be bold' directive. If anything, I'm a bit too bold.

No, you're not! - - Ed Poor

I've also made significant contributions to these pages: XTC Doonesbury Iron Chef Auger electron spectroscopy mass noun Lise Meitner Zora Neale Hurston Stanley Jordan Brown v. Board of Education James Eastland Homer E. Capehart. I'm very proud of my "gas mileage analogy" for the uncertainty principle on Talk:Cognitive science of mathematics

Can't believe I had to make new pages for: Toni Morrison Langston Hughes Adrienne Rich Alice Walker Richard Wright and Ralph Ellison Please somebody provide more content for these.

I couldn't put up with the mess on the Phase (matter) page in which there was great confusion between states of matter and phases. That's fixed now.

Welcome Olof! It's always good to have Wikipedians with specialized knowledge. Stick around; it's lots of fun... --Stephen Gilbert

Hey Olof, welcome to the 'pedia! Hope you like the place and choose to stick around. Your knowledge on materials science is indeed needed. --User:maveric149

Hi Olof -- I'm writing from my office at a college campus in Tacoma! nice to know I have nice neighbors (I live in Kent). Thanks for the support ;-) JHK
