Web-sites dedicated to (Free) Radio:
	Arrow Classic Rock Radio
		a young Dutch radio-station (on 828 kHz medium wave, so if you live in the Netherlands or Belgium, maybe even the western part of Germany and the northwest of France, I suggest you give this a try), with album-rock and no DJ's, so nothing to disturb your listening pleasure, except maybe interference, but you may also hear them on RealAudio through their site. Their site is in Dutch, but the RealAudio-link allows you to enjoy their programs all the same;
	Voice of America
		whose Saturday programme Communications World is very interesting, though sometimes hard to receive in Western Europe due to budget cuts in the USA (yes, there too!). Communications World, by the way, also has its own site!
	Radio Netherlands and their WWW-magazine Media Network- unfortunately no longer the wonderful radio show it used to be for so long...;-(( Studio Brussel (Belgium), where all those in doubt can find out for themselves that there is also pop music that is worth listening to;

Last but definitely not least: Friends, acquantances and relatives:
	My youngest brother's site. However, Rob is not just my brother, but also the most brilliant philosopher I have ever met (well, I must admit I haven't met many, but yet), so if Philosophy is your pastime, don't forget to check out his site!
	And, of a very different nature, the site of Thony, my eldest brother, with his own graphics, with some kind of memorial museum of our late father's graphics, with info on his (Thony's, that is) dancing escapades (tango, what else?) and his own fiction (in Dutch, mind you). This site is still heavily under construction, so please be warned that it will just arrive "bit by bit, or maybe byte by byte", as he puts it himself.
	Also different, and for the time being somehow limited in size (and -mind you- completely in the Dutch language) my youngest daughter Margy's site.
	The site of my special friend Cheryl Ann, aka Spuddie. I finally met her on March 28 (1998, that is) and believe me, she is worth every bit: she's just as nice a person as I knew she would be...
	And another special friend, this time from Down Under, Felicity by name. Visit her site(s) and meet her family (not forgetting Percy, of course) and look thru the window of her room. And when I say "sites", I mean sites, because she has two of them. One is to pass into history as some kind of frozen reflection of a moment in time. It cannot be accessed anymore and may remain as is for centuries to come. You can apparently still visit it; just click here! And then there is her new site, which keeps on growing and changing...

From here you may return to my homepage.
