WebSite UPDATE     Dated: January 1, 2003.
I appoligize for things being slow to be added to the website at this time.   Being the only webmaster here for the website, and having many things having happened in my life right now, I have not had the opportunity to add or work on the website as I would like to have had.   I appoligize for any inconvienance this may have caused.   There are still many things which are planned to be added or enhanced, and I will get to them as soon as I am able.   Give me some time here, and be sure to keep checking back!   All major improvements or additions will be listed here on the Update page, as has previously been done.   Thanks!
