Note: Why pre-2021 press items refer to "HEATKILLS.org," and later ones refer to "HEATKILLS.us"

Prior to 2021, my project was referred to as "HEATKILLS.org," which is the URL under which I built it in 2014, and operated it, as an uncompensated passion project. Unfortunately, as I describe in Section 4.6 on the "About" page, in late 2020 my domain registrar (one of America's largest) failed to auto-renew HEATKILLS.org, as it had automatically done for the previous six years -- even though it sent me the receipt for its having done so, again this time (it claims it was due to a technical "glitch").  I didn't discover this fact until my domain was sold to someone else. See the details here.

In 2022, due to a COVID-related delay, I began rebuilding everything at HEATKILLS.us.  It is for this reason that all media citations and interviews conducted prior to 2021 refer to HEATKILLS.org, and those after refer to HEATKILLS.us.

    (Notes: (1) I understand this show is/was aired on a national radio network. (2) The purpose of this interview was to discuss an investigative report I produced about the “official lies” that were being told about the “caravans” that were marching through Mexico to get to the US border. But as a fellow dog lover, Blanquita was intrigued by my recent book, "Saved By Shayna: Life Lessons From A Miracle Dog," and my HeatKills.org site, so that’s where we started. This clip is edited to just feature the dog-related material.)

About Jon

I am a dog-loving visualization and graphic designer, writer and creative consultant. My professional bio is here. The most important, joyous job I’ve ever had, was as “dad” to Shayna, the “miracle dog” who helped to save my life after 9/11, and about whom I wrote my first book, “Saved By Shayna: Life Lessons From A Miracle Dog.” Read the Introduction here. See a short video about what made Shayna such an incredibly talented, inspiring and hilarious dog here. I created HEATKILLS.us™ (and its predecessor site, HEATKILLS.org) to help raise awareness of the dangers of leaving a dog in a hot car. Learn about my creation of the HEATKILLS.us™ project here.
