I am a german born in Hemer but now living in Aachen who has diploma in physics, but who is now working as a programmer, mostly using the Delphi programming language. Of course physics is one of my interests, especially Particle physics, cosmology and Astronomy and Astrophysics. One field connected with astronomy which fascinates me currently is calendar.

Other topics I like are Thailand (see also Thailand topics), Spaceflight (especially manned) - but also history, biology, geography, even though I am really amateur in these topics. I also like photography, so see my photo album of photos donated to the 'pedia. I play around in my Sandbox and have a temporary storage for images prepared for articles yet to write.

I am showing all signs of a serious case of Wikipediholism, I even made it into the Top 100 within the three month I am active now.

I also have a homepage (http://www.hoerstemeier.com).

I'm active in the WikiProject German districts, aimed to make an entry for every district in Germany. Connected with it also many cities will get their entry. Thus I started or greatly modified the following:
