Starting in 1996, Alexa Internet has been donating their crawl data to the Internet Archive. Flowing in every day, these data are added to the Wayback Machine after an embargo period.
I have created a website about "The Erotic History of Vampires," not to be controversial or to shock people's sensibilities, but to protest my dismissal from graduate school at the University of Texas at Austin a semester short of getting my PhD in Aerospace Engineering. The Vampire theme, although it fits many of the facts, is done as much in the spirit of protest as in the spirit of accuracy. As soon as the University found out I was disabled, with what the VA kindly calls a "stress disorder" I was history. Overnight I went from being a shining star of the program to being a black hole. They broke every rule in the book to expel me.
All of my technical research is on the web site, plus six more websites: an expose' of a 10,000 year old civilization that wrote the oldest book in existence - the Book of Job, in the Bible; a look at honor during the later Roman Empire, when the Vampire myth first began; a few natural healing practices which were purged as witchcraft by the Inquisition; a free novel about the Archangel of Light during the Civil War; book reviews in a small library; and excerpts from my gothic romance novel from First Books Library called Behold Leviathan.
Thanks in advance for your support in my war against the University - alas, against the whole establishement!
this is so much more than a blog ...
