Verifying against the live site and live WHOIS/DNS…
Common questions
Is inamidst.com legit or a scam?
AboutUs doesn't label sites "legit" or "a scam": this page lists the dated registration, DNS, HTTPS, mail-authentication and safety checks we could verify, each with its source, so you can decide for yourself.
Who owns inamidst.com?
Nobody has completed AboutUs's owner verification for inamidst.com. That's true of most sites here — it isn't itself a warning sign.

2006
For most people, the problem of organization and taxonomisation is a tedious one which is forced upon them. For other weird folk, however, it's a joy. I fall in-between the two categories: I think it's an unfortunate necessity, but it's an interesting task. As with all topics, the extent to which is is boring is relative to the beholder, so I'll just rant about it regardless.
