A note to would-be "link partners" - I get numerous e-mails requesting that I add sites to this page. When I have time, I try to look at sites that may be of interest to visitors to my site. However, due to the limitations on my time and to the large number of requests I get, I cannot make any promises as to when or if I will get to your site and I am unable to answer most of the e-mails that I receive with link requests.
