Long Vacation

Wow! Over a month has passed since I last posted anything! I had very good intentions over Christmas to post at least once, but I caught the Christmas Cold (or it caught me) and am still recovering. Somehow, coughing and sneezing are not inducive to any writing I wish to do. Anyway, I'm back and have plowed through all my e-mails and other detritus and will have something more substantial to report soon.
