A special note for people accessing this site via a mobile device.
I hadn’t realized that the information in the site’s sidebar was getting pushed all the way down to the bottom of the page when viewed through your phones ‘n’ such, which is probably why I’d been getting the occasional “where’s your email address?” and “where are you located?” queries. Er, sorry about that. I’ve added a page to the menu bar with all that info that should be more easily accessible for you mobile folks…a “Menu” button should appear when you load the site…when you click that, you’ll see the “Info for Mobile Users” option. Yeah, I know, it’s kind of a sloppy workaround, but I’ll see if I can’t do a little redesigning for a more elegant solution.
Thank you for your patience, pals!
