The Sound of Silence 0

About this time 24 years ago today I was out back of my workplace in the smoking area with my boss and several other persons. (As an aside, he was one of the best bosses I ever had and no, I no longer smoke.)

We were listening to the silence–silence because the building was under one of the approaches to Philadelphia International Airport directly across the river, but, that day, no planes were flying.

I remember my boss saying, “I’m glad there’s a Texan in the White House.”

How wrong he was.

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.
