Links

The "links" area of any web site is where the internet truly becomes a web; a web of affiliations, passions, acquaintances, loves and profound interest. I tried not to cheat here. I actually visit these websites on a fairly regular basis. It's not a wish list of places I'd go if only I had more time. It's not a list that's meant to impress. Some of these sites come to me, daily or weekly. Stay tuned as this list breathes.
