Happy New Year!

I’ve posted to this blog every day for almost 3 years.  Now, in keeping with government officials across the country, I intend to adapt a furlough program.  My posts will be reduced to 5 a week, for the time being.  And, of course, I’ll watch the statistics to see how this affects readership; Saturdays and Sundays usually have fewer visitors, so the impact will be slight, and I shall have more time to spend with my wife and our dog Teddy, as well as walking or reading.  Next post: Monday, January 4.
