Hianus Somewhat Over
I'm really sorry that I haven't been very good about publishing on a regular basis this summer. I have been away at camps and on vacations. I will try to get back on a regular schedule. I will not be publishing the last week of July and into the first week of August because I will be overseas on a business trip. I am working on a twitter feed as a supplement to my blogs. I will keep you all posted on the progress. Thank you for continuing to be loyal even though I haven't had much content up.
