Just a note of apology. I threw out my back last Friday and have been basically immobilized since.  I still can’t sit for more than a few minutes (standing is a bit better), but I’ve managed to figure out a way to type and use the computer while basically reclining.  Hopefully only a few more days of this and then I get be more consistent blogging (among other things).  First on the list is responding to Mr. Molina’s replies.
