Freud postulated that persons have an id, an ego, and a superego. Here is superego on steroids (though perhaps not as Freud would have defined it). From USA Today:

The United States Mint will soon begin selling a $1 gold coin emblazoned with President Donald Trump’s face, making him the first living person featured on American currency in more than a century.

(snip)

George Washington refused to have his image printed on currency during his lifetime, believing it was “monarchical.”

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.
