The Obligatory Links Page

UPDATE: (13-Mar -2017): I’ve fixed the twirly thing on the top of the page.  Originally (circa 1998) it only worked with the then current version of IE (v4, I think), but it stopped working when Microsoft discontinued that ActiveX control. I later (circa 2008) switched it to VML which allowed it to work on versions of IE through at least v9, but not on FireFox or Chrome. That lasted about 3 years (2011) till it stopped working, and then I thought about converting it to SVG, but decided instead to go SilverLight -- and sure enough, a few years later, Micrsoft dropped that. So, now I’ve converted it to use a HTML5 canvas. Hope you like it!.
