Well, enough unemployed slacking! Last week I finalized a long-term contract down on the edge of Silicon Valley, and today I start. So, the blog entries will probably drop to a trickle in the following days, weeks, and months, but who knows, maybe I'll be inspired by my return to work. The nice things are: the commute is fairly benign, what I'm documenting is interesting, and the location of the campus is on the edge of the bay near to some tidal marshlands similar to where I grew up on the ranch in the North Bay, up Sonoma way.
