Attack Results

Recently, the page was attacked by people trying to send out spam.Evidently, Movable Type of the version I had is vulnerable, and updating within Movable Type is severely costly.The solution is I will have to move things to Word Press. It's going to take a while to get the old articles up. You'll know it has started when this message disappears, but it's going to have to be done manually.

Dan’s Quotes

“Aren't there any adults on your planet?”
― Dan Melson, The Man From Empire

“The Belt, for all its lonely reaches—or because of them—was as neighborly as a village. They gossiped among themselves, by suit radio. Out in the shining blackness it was good to know that, if something went wrong, there was a man listening not five hundred miles away who would come and investigate if you broke off and did not answer.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, The Rolling Stones
