The Evolution Control Committee

About Me

Hmmm, seems that MySpace's searching is a bit on the stupid side and can't deal with "The" in The Evolution Control Committee when we leave it in...
Since we, The ECC, already have a few other sites/spaces/blogs going we offer no promises that this one will stay updated... but we seem to be doing a reasonable job anyway.
Drop by our main page ( http://evolution-control.com ) for the official and up-to-date activities of The Evolution Control Committee. Yes, it has serious link rot. But it's the official source. However, we sometime post exclusive material here on MySpace as well.
