Distributed Thinking

I regret that I haven't been able to blog this month.  This isn't for a lack of suitable topics.  It's because I've taken on some extra work to cover for someone who is in turn covering for someone who is leaving. while at the same time negotiating with several people to plan for how to replace that person.  All this has been both complicated and time-consuming, and this blog is one of the things that I've had to drop for a while. Right now, I'm about to head for somewhere warm for a week with the family.  I plan to be incommunicado and forget about work for a few days!
