There will be events going on today (including a debate now being shown on NBC) that yours truly will not be able to write about. Today I pack and leave for a three month tour. I will be offline except for short instances where I may do some posts. If major events occur and no one on TMV covers them, they will be dealt with later. My drive today will be 10 hours.
