-- Why do you care who or what operates and hosts the site?

I care about who or what operates and hosts the site,
because it appears to be an attempt to
appear to be something it isn't.

What I'd like to know is:

why do you care,
about why I care
about who or what operates and hosts the site?

Are you writing a book about me?
If so, you'll have to sign a contract with my agent,
if you want me to answer personal questions.

-- Books only get written about interesting people.

I think Gisse is right on this point.

Although I get a lot of attention from Gisse,
Jeff Relf, Art Deco, PD, Ferguson, Wormley, Moortel,
and a few others,

and they hang on my every word,

unfortunately for me,
(Fortunately for mankind.)
there aren't many people like them around,
so any book about me would have a very small market.
