About This Site
Welcome to the McLarenBlog. The purpose if this site is to share knowledge on a varied list of topics. Please excuse this site for not targeting a more focused presentation. I (we) find it a lot more fun to share with you more than one or two viewpoints and cover a lot of different items. Look to the menu for a list of items to choose from.

We also have a computer expert that advises me from time to time about issues that I can not handle.

Score Card is used as an anonymous writer. The name came about when he found out a university student was arrested, stripped searched and put in jail for trying to do a story about how dirty the keyboards were in the library computer lab in California. A faculty member and Score Card attempted to give this girl support during this event. Score Card’s only contact with this black student was by phone and he had to come up with an anonymous name so the university, which was my employer, could not track me down. He does like the name because he tends to look at life and rank participation of people and businesses much like filling in a score card.

We receive communications from all sorts of people. Many do not want their identity to be known. We received confidential e-mail all the time and you are encouraged to participate. We will make phone calls using *67 so that caller ID will not function when we perform investigations. When we make our calls to gain information, we will NOT publicize who we talked to. Our policy is to treat all communications as anonymous unless we receive specific permission, in writing, that we can place the name of an individual into a specific posting.
