2-17-12 Note: The recent extended downtime was due to a confluence of several factors: paypal failed to notify me of a problem, yahoo failed to tell me the nature of the problem (just said try again another time, but other times never worked), and my own priorities are more on finding a job or income.
    I might feel bad about the downtime if more of the 250 average daily visitors to this site would pitch in five bucks, one buck, whatever. I don't use donations for anything but site hosting, but the web payment and credit card people like grabbing a bit for themselves. The details about that are here. There will be updates if I get enough to host the site past April.

[earlier note] This site's hosting will continue for until 15 April 2012. It took six days' attempts and four calls to yahoo customer service (the shortest was 25 minutes) to get the term changed (a one-time no-charge switch their site was applicable, their software just wouldn't let it happen) at last. I guess you get what you pay for in hosting.
