VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Our wantok, Tjampita, is closer to the best 'religion' in that when a bloke dies, his/her spirit remains with the community, sometimes in a form that is recognisable in or upon the landscape, or a simple breeze that comes and goes and refreshes those left behind.

The idea is not all that incompatible with the notion of parallel universes.

Ave Maria? No thanks, Tia Maria.
