Articles

Welcome to the blog page. Here's all the articles. Like the tag line for the web site says, I write about a lot of different subjects. Well, at least, when I write at all.

Well. Time to start over from scratch. There used to be a complete web site here. It was on Wordpress, and there was 10 years of content in it. Now, thanks to hackers it's all gone.
