I can see from a few quick posts that links are far from obvious with my current site design. This means I’ll need to delve into the CSS and see where I can make some changes. At least I’ve replaced the default links in the “blogroll” ( a term I despise) with some of the links from my old site. I’m still going through an updating this list, testing the links and such, but the place is slowly coming together. I tried to post a draft entry from my iPhone, but it has not shown up. Maybe once I press publish it will appear. Like that ability, though, if I can get it to work.

It is too bad that someone even has to write what Wendy McElroy recently wrote at her site, but somehow I’m not surprised.
This is the first post written in WordPress, just to plant a flag in the ground, despite the wonderfully phrased statements from Terry Pratchett’s novel Nation about flag-planting. All the other posts below are historical vestiges from Blogger, which I am setting aside for now. I am switching focus a little from just liberty and culture to a wider perspective, though in a sense also narrower, since this really consists of my thoughts and opinions.
I have not messed with WordPress since many versions ago, so changes are the only certainty around here.
While I’m still training my new computer (since the old one crashed), I have not finished transitioning to my new site. Here’s an interesting perspective on libertarian sf, by the media sf blogging web site, io9.com.
With a headline like “Anti-Corporate Libertarian Futurism in ‘The Unincorporated Man’” from io9.com, the LFS definitely needs to check out this novel.
I have busy with a new site, too busy really to blog things that have appeared.
I will be shutting down this site and moving to a different location once I have finished the new site design.
The new site will contain much more stuff, including items related to Prometheus, the newsletter of the LFS.
The Horror Writers of America selected two recipients of this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award: Chelsea Quinn Yarbro and F. Paul Wilson. Wilson won the first Prometheus Award in 1979 for Wheels Within Wheels. Since then he also has won the Prometheus Award for Best Novel in 2004 (Sims), and the Hall of Fame Award in 1990 and 1991, for his novels Healer and An Enemy of the State.
Nice article at reason magazine about The Prisoner from a French perspective.
Victor Koman, author and proprietor of Kopubco, is running a 20% of sale. Aside from the fantastic savings, check out the fantastic offerings, from Prometheus Award winning novels, to New Libertarian issues, to Star Wars fandom and beyond.
Finally, I am able to output the content of the past couple of years in one export file. Alas, the format is XML, so now I have to puzzle through the file tree and see how to bring the export into a database for local storage.
