No gimmicks: pictures only where necessary, no animated GIFs, no Java, no frames, nothing proprietary like ActiveX or Javascript. If you can't live without, please go elsewhere. This project started as "bookmarks on the web", with new information being added as my scarce spare time permits. I may not be held responsible for the results of bad layout, boring design, rotten style or incorrect information presented here :-)
Many links will point to nearby mirrors -- please check for original sites or more appropriate mirrors.
