Dark No More...
Hello everyone.
As you may have noticed, I�m the person formerly known as dadarkmcse � now known by my legal moniker of Jon Westfall. I�m pretty psyched that I was asked to join up as a contributing editor-in-training here at PPCT, and wanted to let you guys know a little more about me.
I started playing with computers when I was in the second grade, and have been hooked ever since. I started my own small consulting business while still in high school, and have been messing around with web programming and such primarily since 1996 (In a past life, I was also into Pascal coding with Borland Delphi). I went to college in 2000 and decided that computers angered me when they didn�t work right, and that if I went into Comp Sci, I�d probably be the one called to fix them more than use them� So I decided I�d study something a bit more interesting to me: Humans. I recently received my bachelors in psychology, and am currently in the cognitive psychology M.A.-PhD program at The University of Toledo.
In addition to my �day job� I�m also the technical manager for a small web hosting business (playing around with windows and red hat linux boxes when things go really wrong�) and periodically drop in at The University of Akron to teach a Saturday computer class now and then (I used to teach A+ Certification for 3 years there).
Surprisingly, I still have lots of idle time on my hands (Just ask my fianc� about that), so I�m looking forward to hanging out here, answering questions, posting news, and generally helping to grow the awesome user community we have at PPCT!

Well, I haven't ever told anyone about the cloner in my bedroom, but since you've exposed my secret... Oh well, just don't drop any brownies in it .
Thanks for the welcome everyone!
