Hello! I'm RC1739, though you may have landed here by clicking on NYCDOT, which was my previous username (though I'm actually from Long Island). On Wikipedia, I like to focus on articles about the New York metropolitan area—especially public transit and local municipalities. Currently, I'm focused on improving articles related to Walt Disney World, and Washington Metro stations (yes, they're pretty much polar opposites). I also have two other projects related to Georgetown University and Long Island bus transportation on the backburner. Have any questions? Talk to me here.
