{{cquote|I am Native American. I grew up with prejudice and misunderstanding about my people and culture. People either saw us as stuck in the 1850's (a group of college students in New Jersey were suprised I knew how to use a microwave) or noble savages with the universe figured out. Wikipedia has allowed me to contribute and create entries that help others to understand me and my people, providing information from those that know, live it, experience it, not those that heard of.}} |

I often type in topics before lecture to get ideas on natural products to include in my presentations.}} |
