I have been able to steal a little personal time over the past few days, which is lovely! I had to rebuild bits of the EMG-Zine site to clear out the last problems with that hacker that got in before Guppy was born... you may have gotten some malware notifications from the site in the meantime.

I've deleted ALL those files from the site until I can inspect them individually for weaknesses.

Were lemondrops and gumdrops...!
