Re the blog-silence. No, we haven't sailed off the edge of the earth. We've been preoccupied with home improvement, and Fleck has been channeling his spare energies into his weird obsession with bending Wikipedia to his will. Dave-Man, manfully correcting error in fields from comparative anatomy to quantum physics!

If that isn't superhero enough, he has also been involved in my current obsession, the beautification of my office - he kindly painted the walls for me, and will be attending to installing some molding next weekend. It really is shaping up to be a lovely and serene little room. I almost feel guilty - Dave-Man, you see, has his lair in the basement - a space much larger than my own, but...well, it's the basement. Carpeted and finsished, mind you, but...it's the basement. Shares it with the furnace, dehumidifier, back-basement storage, etc. Is he not a noble spouse for giving me the airy second-floor retreat, and applying his power tool time to its improvement, when he could be replacing his depressing acoustic-tile ceiling?

But we'll be back. There's been no action on S.536 that I know of.
