statement

Statement of origin, management, funding, and ownership of this site:

I, Leigh Lockwood, originated this site in September 2011, paid domain hosting and infrastructure, am sole administrator and owner, and take responsibility for the content I have provided but not for content provided either directly or indirectly by others.  I neither receive nor wish to receive financial support, but thanks for asking.  Neither this site nor I are affiliated with any institution or organization, although my wife does ask from time to time, "On what planet do you live?"  (Notice that her syntax is precise, as opposed to my often "informal" sentence construction).

I individually own typos, crimes of syntax, dangling participles, lack of parallel structure, poor translation, disagreement between subjects and verbs, rambling, poor humor, overuse of passive voice and prepositions, grouchiness, etc.  I do NOT own global warming, COVID, inflation, and the like.  You will have to go elsewhere or Google, "WTF COVID" or "WTF inflation."

I was motivated to start this site by the suspicion there we have some interesting stories and needeed a clearing house for connections.  (Also see my reference to Mike Scott below.)  The site has been successful at both, but I depend on YOU to give this site vitality and relevance.  Don't be one of those who says, "I always meant to write something." 

This site it totally volunteer driven, so if you have a complaint, well, you can imagine my answer to you. I do, however, welcome constructive suggestions and valid complaints, click HERE

Please don't ask me to do research like, "My great uncle had a neighbor whose name I forget who attended the ASF in the third grade and had a dog named Bones.  Can you send me his address?"  Just write to the American School Alumni office and ask them to do the research.  Good luck with that, BTW. 

We do not rent, sell, divulge, share, or loan any personal information.  Those who join control their own amount of personal information publicly or privately available.  If you wish to be delisted from our database, I will do so immediately, click HERE  If you worry about your data being shared, don't join.  If you post, please consider the information to be public. 

Links and images contained herein are, to the best of my knowledge public domain or public information.  If anyone sees an item that is NOT so, let me know and I will remove it.

I have to give credit to Mike Scott of '66 for giving me the idea to start the site.  I started with '65, but received so many inquiries from other years I decided to cover a 60's decade from the old farts of '59 to the children of '69.

Deepest thanks to those who have contributed and encouraged.  To those who haven't yet done so, it ain't too late.
