ASIDE: This site was created in October of 1997 and placed on Tripod. With their acquisition by
Lycos, Tripod started downhill, until idiotic java-script ad programming became impossible to tolerate.
I acquired a domain on Nov. 30, 2003. At that point, we had been visited almost exactly a million times.
I moved the page in Dec. 2007 after being locked out by international internet providers that were
impossible to communicate with and my credit card company stopped doing business with them. GCW
