What's this page?

Welcome to my front page. I am restoring and organizing available online material into a more accessible database that indexes both this Drupal website and also the static elements of my earlier webserver's directory structure dating back to 1996 and before. A work in progress, it will remain a creative and expressive outlet, as it has in the past, and a place to post information that I consider worthy of note and of possible public interest. Play nice in the sandbox and reach out here to share what you wish. Thank you.
