Some of these gripes are solely indexes of articles written by others either because I have no first-hand experience with the product or I am exercising restraint. Just because I have gripes, does not mean that you should not use a product or that the product is poor. As noted above, I continually use many griped about products. Treat the gripes as a heads up about problems you might expect should you use the product. This web site is a hobby, not a commercial enterprise.
Nothing is sold here.
In The News is not the main focus of this site. Often there are gripe-like stories in the media on subjects and topics I don't cover and this section gives me a place to highlight these stories. Finally, this web site is rated G, there are no curse words, despite the frequent temptation. I was also interviewed by John Rhodes of WebWord in February 2001. I live in this neighborhood.
