In the interests of rolling everything over to WordPress, I am going to start backfilling posts from both the old Movable Type blog and what remains of the original pages I had created way back when, with the hopes of getting rid of both. This will, of course, take a long time but if you see stuff disappear or duplicate here or there, that’s why.

So, apparently the Movable Type blog I have been using for over ten years no longer works with the latest PHP my host is supporting. I periodically have had to get some changes made to support features that would die along the way. Guess that last step was a doozy.
As soon as I can figure out how to backdate entries I will try to recover the work I have done.
Until then, I have some stuff I want to add. Let’s see how this goes, huh?
