Q. How often do you update this blog?
A. There’s no fixed schedule. Sometimes I update it once or twice a week, but if I’m busy doing other things, or want to take a break from the computer, it might not be updated for a few months.
Q. Why do you post entire articles here instead of just linking to them?
A. First of all, because there’s nothing more frustrating than trying to follow a link only to find that the page has been moved or deleted or the website has shut down. This way, if the page or the website ever goes missing, there’s a permanent copy on this blog. A secondary reason is because some links may be off-limits to readers in certain countries. For example, a website dealing with holocaust revisionism might not be accessible to someone living in Germany or France. By posting the article here, a reader who wouldn’t otherwise be able to access it may be able to, as blogs such as this one are probably too small to have made a blip on the censors’ radar screens.
Q. Is it OK for me to post a copy of an article that appeared on this blog somewhere else, like say on usenet or a message board?
A. Yes, you may, but please include a link to the original article and do not remove the name of the author.
Q. Do you agree with all of the content at the sites you link to?
A. No, I do not. As a matter of fact, I strongly disagree with some of the material posted at some of the sites I link to. Sometimes I agree with some of the material but not with all of it, and sometimes I’ll just link to a site because I find it interesting or thought-provoking, irrespective of whether I approve of it or not. I can read stuff without having a fit if the author doesn’t agree with me on everything (and few do), and I assume that my readers are mature and intelligent enough to do the same.
Q. Is there a way to contact you privately?
A. Yes. You can send me email at igoralexander at hotpop dot com (taking care to remove the spaces and replace the “at” and the “dot” with the appropriate characters). If you expect a response, be aware that it may take up to a few weeks, depending on how frequently I’m checking my account and how much mail I have to respond to. Do not send me attachments or HTML-formatted email. For security reasons, I will delete such emails without even reading them. If you’re having trouble reaching me through the above address (for example, if your emails bounce back, or you haven’t gotten a response after a couple of months), please report it in the guestbook.
