Wow. After all this time (since April 2005), I honestly never thought that I would ever finish this site. Needless to say, I'm glad that I did. Unfortunately, I haven't finished most of my work (i.e. my contributions to the site, as opposed to those of [generous] outside sources. Updates may be slow in August, because my fandom time is being sucked up by this contest. Never fear - I haven't given up on this site, yet! Please wait patiently as a try to improve the aesthetics and content of this website. Thank you! Now, on to the important stuff...
