For the site to progress I have to face the reality of finances and have added some links to Amazon and a Paypal donation link. Any donations will support purchase of a specific domain, hosting, software and hardware. Since development started in 1997 the site has been financed personally. To date I have tried to avoid advertising. Inclusion of Amazon links, and sponsors - should any follow - will be placed with discretion.
