It's an honor just to have been nominated

Sorry for the extended pause. That busy-ness I earlier referred to has not yet abated (soon, though, I hope... I miss having enough mental cycles to write).

But I do now have a new post, only it's over at the old Great Change blog. I realize that I still have a few things to add to that story, things which I don't really want to mix up with what I'm trying to create over here. (Well, when I can get to it...)
