I Have To Go Back to Delaware Today 0

My timing seems to be its usual wonderful self:

Four cases of swine flu at the University of Delaware were confirmed Thursday, while the number of suspected cases rose to 12.

A small team from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was set to arrive in the state Thursday night at the invitation of Gov. Jack Markell, who said he requested the team to assist a group from the Division of Public Health, Christiana Care and the university.

This website does not track you.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
