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.

“Personally, I think he’s a kind, decent man who says stupid things because he is pretending to be something he is not — some sort of cartoonish government-hater.” Personally, I think David Brooks, as one of the career pundit paste-eaters can’t bring himself to admit that sometimes a dick is just a dick. Romney open his mouth, shows up in public, and the truth shines out. For him, that’s virtue inside the walls of Estate Romney.

Mitt presents himself well, believes in nothing, and is willing to say and do anything to get what he wants.
That’s a pretty good practical definition of a sociopath.
Later: I got the Bobo link from someone–I forget who–who said that, if Romney’s lost David Brooks, he’s pretty much done for.
