Hey PF, just registered. I'm a high school sophomore interested in topics like chemistry, engineering, and anything with wings :plane:(or rocket motors for that matter :rocket:). I've been lurking around here a couple weeks and like what this forum has to offer. Looking forward to joining in with all my fellow geeks on here!
