Disclaimer
I have used reasonable care and skill in compiling the content of this website. However, I make no warranty as to the accuracy of any information on this site and cannot accept liability for any errors or omissions, especially as the information is based, in a large measure, on personal opinions and information culled from a number of other websites and newsgroups on the internet. You are encouraged to verify the information (especially prices and availability of products) with other reputable sources.
I hereby explicitly state that the hypertext links on this website, which are provided for information only, will lead you to websites that are not under my control. As the sites they link to are not under my control, I am not responsible for the contents of any such linked site. The inclusion of any link does not in any way imply or express affiliation, endorsement or sponsorship by me of that site. When such a link is clicked, you will leave this website. I am not responsible or liable for any material contained on any other website. I will remove links to material that I feel is inappropriate as I becomes aware of them.
I also hasten to point out that I am not, nor do I support any, extremist political views. The fact that there are pictures and content related to politcal regimes that totally and absolutely ignored human rights is merely a reflection of a turbulent period in our history.
