Bookmark this site. It's a news site run by Lawrence Lee, aka Tomalak. There are a handful of people who send me links regularly, they know what I'm interested in, and Lawrence is my top number one link guy. In a way I'm sorry that he's got his own news page now, but that's the way it goes.. Thanks for all your help Lawrence, and best wishes for the new site!
