Always treat All others with Dignity and Respect."
* * IMPORTANT NOTICE * *
Larry and Sue Westin have
moved to Maine (April 2000). Originally I planned to keep this Homepage
on the Smartlink (now Thevine) server. During our move from California
to Maine, Smartlink (now Thevine) was sold to "TheVine" Internet.
Thevine made several rather drastic changes. First Thevine is
only a limited Internet Service Provider, not all services are
available. Second they made a decision that only 5 Mb of personal
Homepage space is allowed!
At the time of that decision I had about 35 Mb of data on my Homepage.
In
addition they implemented a new program which froze my ability to
change my
Homepage until I was below the 5 Mb level. To get below 5 Mb, so I
could modify
the page to even tell you I was changing ISP's, I had to remove almost
every
image on my Homepage. Please take a look at our new Homepage ISP, a
link
is provided below. Thank you - Larry Westin
For the above reasons our
Homepage has MOVED to a new URL. Hope you will visit us at our new Homepage at http://personalpages.tdstelme.net/~westin. Please take a look.

Erik Westin remains - westin@thevine.net
Larry & Sue Westin are
now at - westin@Tdstelme.net
To meet the stringent
disk
space requirements of The Vines MOST of the images have been removed.
It
took a great deal of work to get them there, but it is financially not
feasible to pay more for added disk space. Please enjoy what remains,
and we invite you to visit us at our new Homepage.

Larry Westin's Beliefs
about Free Speech
- Free
Speech
"THOSE WHO WOULD
GIVE UP ESSENTIAL LIBERTY TO PURCHASE A LITTLE TEMPORARY SAFETY DESERVE
NEITHER
LIBERTY NOR SAFETY."--Benjamin Franklin, 1759 - My personal (rather conservative)
thoughts
on free speech, plus a link to the Blue Ribbon site which has extensive
information
about the telecommunications law signed by President Clinton. You can
E-Mail
me westin@Tdstelme.net
- Free Speech Comment with your views, anonymously if you wish. As
of
December 1998 a little over 50% of the emails about my free speech
beliefs agree with me, while just under 50% disagree with my opinion on
free speech. One common pattern about the E-Mails returned to me about
this subject; they
are all written in good taste. Those who disagree with my views still
give
good reasons why they believe my ideals are wrong. Always very
interesting E-Mail on this subject!!
- Web Search Tools Don't know where on the World
Wide
Web to look? These links to WWW search sites are great WWW search
tools!
