My readers will have noted that my last post on this site was in February, which is an unusually long hiatus for this blog. I haven’t not posted for such a long period since I began the blog in 2005. The hiatus was involuntary, however; my site was cracked by someone peddling pharmaceuticals. That’ll teach me not to update the software for this site regularly. Anyway, I’m back and ready to resume my regular publication schedule.
