Off to San Diego

I'M OFF TO SAN DIEGO to visit family. I'll be busy, but I'll try to keep up some blogging. Look for me late this evening San Diego time or, more likely, on Wednesday.

UPDATE: Unplanned overnight stay in Amsterdam due to a technical glitch in Edinburgh which made us miss our connection. Could be late Wednesday evening or Thursday before I can get back to blogging.

Things look pretty quiet right now, but here's something via the Agade list.
