The archive is, of course, not here right now - but I'll try backfilling some of it in the days ahead in case you missed some recent entries.

Instead, for now, I'm going to clone a site that I can maintain because I coded it myself and that's what Galactic Hunter is going to be for now. And possibly forever. I hate acknowledging my limitations, but it's this or spending hours, days, or weeks having conversations that go nowhere that may not result in recovering the old site.

Thanks for your continued support, your readership, and your patience as I grind my teeth down losing two decades of hard work while trying to code what I hope will be an acceptable workaround. Will it work well on your phone? No. But I assume my main audience will probably still have a PC or Mac or Linux-based UFO on which to read these things.

It is my hope to repost old Q&A over time - maybe one a day until what's in my archive is back up - but I can't be sure exactly how all of this is going to shake out yet. I'm coding all of this on the fly.

I've been working on some hopefully fun things digging as far back as the 1990s to bring for August. August 1 marks 30 years of me writing about Star Wars toys on the internet, so some old Q&A stuff and other goodies will be dredged up. I'm sorry I wasn't able to preserve everything, but things going away is what made us appreciate so much in the 1980s and 1990s. Maybe I'll come up with something better. Maybe it'll alienate those of you who are still here. But you've put up with me this long, hopefully you'll stick it out through another rough patch... and if I can find a way to bring the site back, I will.

Your pal,
