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. |
