Well I didn't post for something like 3 1/2 years and never even looked at the comments on some of my posts.  Now I find that a few intrepid souls had found the blog and actually left comments.  Not only that but 3 out of 4 of them were complimentary and the commentors even left their names.

My apologies to those who stumbled by way back when.  I should have replied to your comments but I was new to this kind of thing and didn't realize they were there.  Things came up and I just never had the time or energy to get back to it.  I expect to do a little better this time around.
