This month's featured writer <p> Like many an Illogicopedian, Sir Frosty is a child of Uncle Pete, with the bonus feature of being an admin on there. Yet, despite his shared duties, good ol' Frosty still manages to be one of the most active editors on Illogicopedia, dispelling the nonexistent myth that ?Pedia users cannot multitask. Some of this fine fellow's feats so far include creating a page, writing under the influence of alcohol, unleashing edit conflict and embarking on a journey towards the sun. Frosty also takes home the additional honour of being the first person to win IOTM in exactly a year. Huzzah!
