Whoa, hello there! (from the I been busy department...)

As you have undoubtedly noticed, there's a big blank space in the blog for last week. I was so busy being pursued by "fans" at ARC that I didn't have time to blog. Lest this sound like left-handed complimenting of myself, I want to point out that even my weak celebrity drives me nuts. I can't imagine how real celebrities handle it. A young gentleman even accosted me in the restroom to introduce himself and tell me how much he enjoyed my articles, and so on. At least it was at the sink, and on the way out... Fact is, the end users, the integrators, and the suppliers who make the stuff and use the stuff that I talk about are the real celebrities, if we only knew it. I'll be using the Wayback Machine from the Blogosphere to back-fill last week's blog columns...so check back a week and see what I should have said back then.
