PLEASE NOTE: This version of my portal website and of the various sites and blogs it is leading to is the version that I had closed down in early August 2009, leaving only a rudimentary web presence, and am reactivating today as a legacy version, for the time being. As it now sits on a completely different even more powerful server (hardware and software), it is likely that some parts do not yet (or not anymore) work smoothly together. If you notice anything of the sort, please let me know. Whether I will be able to update these sites in the future, how much and how often, entirely depends first of all on my health (which had been particularly bad last year), then on my available time, and last but not least on my dire finances... I fortunately have a sponsor now for my hosting costs. A very special thank you here to that wonderful great guy (and his wife and family!) who is totally tolerant towards all the content of my sites, doesn't interfere in any way. He doesn't want to be named though. But all the many other costs associated with such a publishing activity on the Web and more generally with using computers and being active on the Internet are not yet covered and bite heavily into my already much too small income, making my simple survival and the keeping of my health hazardous. So it could still become necessary to close down my sites again. Only donations can prevent that.
