Please accept my apologies for the vile spam comments that keep showing up here. I hope that the folks at Corante and I can find a way to permanently shut down the flow of craven obscenity.

I’ve been traveling again, and now I’m racing against a slew of deadlines, which leaves precious little time to blog. I hope to get back in the swing next week. More blogging, less spam is my goal for the Loom.
