Oh, and thanks to ppl for using the new comments facilities! I hadn’t realised that ppl were reading this stuff – I started writing it (again) to drive myself into doing something. Last year I realised weeks were going by without me doing anything (and I mean anything, not just anything vaguely educational!) and life was kind of getting away from me. I thought if I started blogging again, it might give me some sorely needed focus. Seems to be working so far…
