I have been ill for the past week. It always seems to happen at the beginning of the semester. Invariably, I touch one of the stinky, virus-infested keyboards and forget to wash my hands. It’s just like a Windoze peecee to give me a real virus. Probably something karmic. Being sick has allowed me to [...]

Summer Updates
Since it’s too hot to go outside for very long, what better place to be than behind the keyboard? OK, I can think of other places that I’d rather be, but my web sites have needed some updates for a while. I’ve made significant progress on just this site alone, but mostly I’ve just been [...]

Drupal to WordPress
Why is this so difficult? I’ve been looking for days, and I have yet to find a viable solution to move my Drupal site(s) to WordPress. Why?
