I've noticed that a handful of people subscribed to my channel. Hmm. Can't fathom why, since I post very irregularly and never about the same subject twice in a row. Nonetheless, you are all welcome here. Take what you want and leave the rest in the rubbish bin.

If you want to send me a "friend" invitation, that's fine. If you are somebody with whom I've never had any form of communication then you can expect me to reject your invite out of hand. Way too many spam friend invites.

Those of you whom I know can drop me an invite at any time. I would not presume to bother you with an invite. I am mostly a hanger-on around here, and others do the heavy pulling. Just take a look at my subscription list for a good idea who those folks are.

I've unsubscribed some users from my channel because they were obviously just mass subscriptions from record companies and such. If you really want to be subscribed to me you need to participate in the community. Please.

Just another Old Fart. Technology is my bag. You like your microwave oven? Your home's thermostat? Your car's fuel injection? Your heart rate monitor? Your astrophysical data collection system? Well, bunkie -- buy me a beer sometime! Yepper, doodle. That's what I do.

Hi Marty!

I confess that the message thing is more me than YouTube, kind of. There was a period a while back when spammers were really bad at harrassing users through the message system. It was at that point that I set it up so that only friends could send messages. I may change that soon if the spammers have mostly gone.

Thanks!

You're half right. But it's former Warhammer 40K fan. However, I did coin "krootasaurus" many years ago on the Dakka Dakka forums.

Hey what happened to your profile image with the gun shot? That's what I imagine getting shot in the face would look like. That would suck.

It was not posted for arts sake.
Change was needed, and things are being put in order.
Please be patient.
