Good morning. This site was originally intended to become some sort of e-zine with paid subscriptions. It would hold both trivial and useful information, as well as discussions intended to clarify some of the issues that come up in the news. But then I realized that if I charge for entry, no one will enter; and that if I'm not willing or able to write all of the pieces I want to include here, other people probably won't be either. So instead it remains a repository of things I've already written. Some of this is information I thought should be available on the Internet, that I couldn't (at the time) find anywhere else. The rest is just for fun.
