digital immortality -- what to do when I die ...
I decided not to become a writer in the traditional sense, but to develop what in retrospect may be called virtual poetry:see write.eliens.netyou may also look at https://www.facebook.com/aeliens to see some more recent examples,
From the indications below, it should be obvious what to do, make
sure the bills are paid, despite my dislike of

motivation for maintaining eliens.net:
as an explanation for my urgency, I want to briefly indicate the
reasons for my urgent request to support me in keeping my account
secure, that is to help me arrange some form of automatic payment
so that the existence of the domain eliens.net and its sub-domains
will be garantueed for the coming (undefinite number of) years.
My website (eliens.net and its subdomains) has been elected by the
Dutch Royal Library as valuable digital heritage and is archived
on their site. The domain eliens.net and its subdomains is an
index on this site, which is partially archived at
eliens.virtualpoetry.tv which I have set up over the last years,
with great support from Evan from your support department (in CC).
This site in a way consitutes my digital immortality and is used,
so to speak as promotion for myself, that is my current
professional activity (as a retired professor in creative
technology / new media), as you can see from my recent facebook
posts on https://www.facebook.com/aeliens Hopefully this brief
summary clarifies my motivation to set up a simple form of
automatic payment so that the index to my site provided by
eliens.net and its subdomains is garantueed even after, yes, my
dead, without bothering my wife or children with the details of
arranging such payments.
