About Spiderone

I am nothing to do with Spider One, of course, but I like spiders and I believe 'Spider' was taken as a username. I spend 90% of my time here reading articles. When I do edit, it's mostly to fight vandalism and spam.

We haven't always agreed and we still may not agree on some things but our brief conversations and exchanges has meant a lot to me, personally. Thank you for being kind and thoughtful during those times. I appreciate your contributions here on Wikipedia and hope you continue. I love the colors that make you who you are.
