This site exists for me to host things to amuse my friends. Hopefully, something will strike your fancy as well. Why Grayswandir? In Roger Zelazny's Chronicles of Amber, Grayswandir was a mystical sword. Given my lifelong involvement in the esoteric art of strategic defense systems, it somehow strikes a chord with me.
