You may find some oddities in the formatting of my blog pages: certainly previous visitors will notice changes in presentation. Please bear with me as I’m engaged in an update to my whole website (of which the blog is a part). For technical reasons, the blog pages have to be inserted into conventional web pages in a rather time-consuming fashion. Not the least of the issues involves re-formatting the pages, hence the change in appearance. I hope this doesn’t prove too much of a hassle: it will hopefully be worth it in the end!
