I'm back

Some months ago, I became very busy trying to finish a big project and I stopped blogging at civitatensis.ca, the site to which I had moved after starting to blog here in January of 2005.

I was so busy that I even missed the date for renewing the web registration. Since then, a couple of some ones took over the name. There is nothing wrong with that. It is a free country and a free web, but those who took over the name have been deliberately posing as this writer.

They didn't just use the same web name. They have tried to emulate my graphics with an Ancient feel. That the poor buggers are using Greek architecture to depict a blog with a Roman name is evidence that they have no clue about what the name means. In addition, they use my writer's name, kaqchikel, and use the same descriptor for my blog: "Eclectic commentary about random political and social issues, primarily on federal and provincial politics in Canada, from an Albertan’s point of view."

I have no interest in engaging the fraudulent civitatensis.ca. Imitation is, after all, the greatest form of flattery.

I still have my own archive from civitatensis.ca and I will be loading them here soon.

So, on this day of the Winter Solstice, the birth of the Sun, I am reclaiming in this space my name and my blog. They can steal my writer's name and appropriate the website, but they can't match my graphics and ideas.
