Apologies for not posting anything for the last day and a half or so.  As you may have heard, Blogger has been down – in read-only mode for almost 48 hours.  Apparently this is the result of a botched upgrade by Google, though they’re denying that – in any case, this is certainly giving the media ample reason to question the wisdom of the stampede towards cloud computing.  It only came back on-line in the last hour.

In any case, that’s why Thursday – normally my busiest review day of the week – was so quiet.  Thanks for your patience.
