It's a hard lesson to learn.
This [geocities.com] was in my browser history.
If you notice, hitting "Home" on that link takes you to a place that says all the content moved to http://www.herongyang.com/. I'm betting that's happened to a lot of Geocities content. It can now be found elsewhere.
Time to update my sig again. This one is a David Bowie/Trent Reznor quote from the song "I'm afraid of Americans". My MP3 player cued it up for me and the lyrics really struck home given today's political world climate and the upcoming US Mid-term Elections. I'm a US native (Californian) and I don't think I know who Americans are anymore - my own people and many of them seem to hold beliefs that are alien to me.
