In answer to the emails: I plan to restart more extensive blogging later this week. Due to several extremely serious family matters, driving huge distances, and my performing schedule I have limited time. For instance, today I drive 320 miles roundtrip on a business matter. Most of my posts will resume at normal pace on Wednesday.
