Well, if you can't tell the blog's on a hiatus of sorts.  Life, kids, home repairs and work is making the blog more of a burden than anything else.  I gave it a good year test run and learned a few new things about the blogosphere which has been fun.  By no means am I giving up the fight for what's humane or right.  I continue to protest and work in social action groups where I feel I can make a difference - I encourage everyone to do the same.  Just making a conscious effort to reduce a little complexity in my life right now.

Keep up the fight!
