You may have noticed that this is a very plain page. Since I work as a freelancer in the film industry to support my habit, I don't have time to maintain the site quite like I would want to. In order to make up for this, the following links are provided. The first are units who share many of the same goals with us and someone in their unit has the time to put into a nice site.
