After a lengthy absence I'm back in the blogging saddle again. Apologies for being away for so long. Without boring you with details I've been working on other projects (the new template for the blogs for one) and I took some time off over the holidays. I also had some medical issues to deal with (my shoulder) which I'll explain some other time.

So here we are in 2006 and my oh my how things have changed yet remained the same. We have some exciting things to talk about so I'll catch you up to speed in the next few entries. Now that we've made it easier to provide feedback I hope to hear from some of you more often.
