I am not the original author of the web site, nor is this its original
location. The original site opened up for business on April 7, 1999, and I
discovered it a few days after that. Much to my surprise, on April 15, 1999, the
whole site was gone, replaced with this short message:
Wow. That must have been some pretty nasty email to cause the poor guy to throw in the towel after a mere eight days! I had emailed the original author with many suggestions, noting that I had been toying with the idea of putting up an APS site of my own until I saw his. Now he had shut the site down, though he hoped he had "inspired someone else to take up the cause". I don't know how strong my stomach is compared to his, but I figured, what the heck, I'll give it a shot. So, late in same day that the original site went down, I dug its old pages out of my cache, changed the email addresses and links, and here we are. One note: I have not given the original author any credit anywhere on this new site since he closed down the original site to escape email harassment. |
