Harbor Charlie

Well, it's that time of year again, time to renew the web hosting. And for those of you that don't know, that has become a lot more expensive than it used to be. Fifty dollars a year is now several hundred. Not to mention the price of domain names has gone up ten-fold.

And I just found out that the nice folks at PayPal disabled all my Support buttons, and I never got a notice (although that may be my fault.) In any case, it is all working again now, so if you would like to make a small donation to help defray these costs, it would be greatly appreciated.

"Harbor Charlie" is the waterborne unit of the NYPD; this was one of their runabouts. The unit was founded in 1858 to fight piracy in the harbor that had grown rampant. In addition to law enforcement, today their mission includes a large search-and-rescue component.
