Please Stand By
Work has been killing me, so the blog has had to take a back seat. More Strange Stars, science fantasy Greek mythology, and other stuff to come.
Stay tuned.

Hassled by the Man
My Strange Trails download is nonfunctional for the second time in two months. Suspended.
It appears all anyone has to do is say to Mediafire "take that down" and it goes down. Last time it was a film company saying I was violating their IP related to a film of their's I had happened to review (favorable) on my blog. The fact that there was absolutely nothing in Strange Trails relating to their IP made no difference--since of course nobody actually read the file. I'm sure if was just an internet search then seeing a download and the assumption was dread piracy.
So this time, I don't even know what the complaint is--just the name of the company that made it (which is a non-American media company I've never heard of). At least this time I'm given the oppurtunity of rebuttal--which would be great if I knew what I was rebutting.
I suppose its time to go looking for a new host. It's just frustrating it doesn't even require an actual allegation, just the suggestion of one.
