{{cquote|I was fortunate enough to have parents who encouraged a tireless interest in the world. I never run out of curiosity, and I always want to understand the world around me. As I grow older, and begin to plan a family of my own, I'm excited about the enormous, free resource of Wikipedia, and how much I will be able to leverage it to encourage my children's curiosity. As a future homeschooler, Wikipedia is like an enormous virtual research library that can be employed in an instant. It's a resource that didn't exist in my childhood, and I am delighted with how it will enrich my own children's lives. |

Wikipedia is typically my first stop for any snippet of information, from the population of my hometown, to the names of all the kings in England, to the chemical properties of sugar. I believe it represents a vastly important public resource, created and supported by that very same public, and I am proud to be one small part of that.}} |
