Welcome

edit

Thanks for visiting my user page. I have used Wikipedia for a number of years, as a tool for both research and enjoyment (with a very rare edit here and there). I have now become a registered editor, and hope to add to the quality and value of Wikipedia with my contributions. Some of my projects and interests are listed on this page. In case you are wondering about my username, altiora peto is a Latin phrase meaning "I seek higher things" (or "I strive higher").
