Desiree Horton

I'm glad you're a fan of Desiree Horton (aka Chopper Chick) but Wikipedia is not a fansite. With sentences like "Horton derives great satisfaction from fighting fires because she's saving people's property and maybe even their lives." and "Fans, too, have made it clear they want to again see her on television--at least after fire season. Little wonder. At 5' 7", with long, dark (most of the time) hair and hazel eyes, Horton looks more like a model or a movie star than an aerial firefighter." this reads more like a puff piece in a men's magazine than an encyclopedia entry. Section headers such as "Wanted to be a Helicopter Pilot Since Childhood" do little to detract from this feeling. This article needs some overhauling. Undoing grammar, typo, and tag fixes is hurting, not helping. - Dravecky 13:54, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
