Information   So, why have you come to this page? If you have come because you have some righteous ideas on what should and should not be published on a web site then by all means email me with your comments, complaints, threats, or whatever, my trash can is legendary for it's heroic capacity. If you have come here out of curiosity, or because you want to learn something then good, read on. There is a lot of interesting stuff going on out there in the shadier corners of the web. Unless you have already discovered this for yourself you will doubtless be surprised by the extent and range of such possibilities. If you were the sort of kid who broke things apart to see how they worked, and then improved them, or made something different out of the bits then you will probably fit right in, make many good friends and contacts, learn a lot and have a good deal of fun besides. The best way to learn is for yourself, so I am not going to spell it out for you. A few minutes on the search engine of your choice with a few well chosen words will give you more links to follow up than you can shake a stick out. And therein lies the problem. There are many good sites and resources out there, but there are countless rip-off merchants and scam sites that will waste your time and effort. So if you email me I will send you a very small list of good places to start - (non in any way affiliated with me nor illegal in themselves). From there you will be able to make your own way and avoid most of the crap infested quagmires that the hangers on of the scene spread about. Once you have found a source of information you should follow some basic common sense rules that will ensure you don't put your foot in your mouth more often than is absolutely necessary. First, lurk listen and learn on a good message board. Here you will, within a week, pick up the vocabulary and etiquette required to be able to post messages and requests yourself without annoying people. Second, when you do make contact, be polite and courteous. Never use CAPITALS; that is shouting and hard on the eyes. Never demand. Always be appreciative of the time others take on your behalf. Third, when you are able, give something back, help others. Sure, there are assholes out there, just like there are Volvo drivers out there. We have to live with them - just try not to become one. That's it. Mail me if you want to learn more.
