This site was unavailable last week while my host moved into a new apartment and waited for the phone company to turn his service back on. Sorry about that. If you sent me any mail that bounced and was ultimately not automatically resent, give it another whack if you can.
Annoyingly enough, I've been feeling the faint stirrings of ideas possibly worth writing out, ever since I have been unable to put them up; worse, though, my iBook just died or freaked out or 'suffered a catastrophic specific logic board component failure' or whatever they call it - so I will be kept away for a while longer.

(Also, 'he steals a horse on rides around on it more than is necessary' is a remark of praise, yes? Yes? Yes.)
