Writing at the Hartford Courant, David Holahan finds himself dismayed by flood of lies in dis coarse discourse and by those who would dismiss justify them as somehow being “free speech.” Here’s a bit of his article (emphasis added):

We are enduring a prevarication pandemic of late. Pettifoggers for perfidious pols are telling us that lies are nothing more or less than good old fashioned made-in-America free speech, our great gift to global governance.

America has devolved from the home of self-evident truths to the land of felonious falsehoods.

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.
