Not to pick at nits, but shouldn’t it be the “Democrat National Convention”?

I mean, if it really *is* meant to be “Democratic”, then every American should be allowed to vote in it.

[insert evil Professor Chaos laugh here]

Sometimes you just have to take things at faith value.

…but due to the effects of slow-moving Tropical Storm Fay, I will almost certainly not attempt to shoot the Florida State show this weekend.

Keep an eye on Deke’s site for any news about the show. As far as I know it’s still on.

As a brief aside, I wonder if it would be a good idea to give categories to tropical storms as well as hurricanes.

Fay has been a well-structured, well-fed, and very wet storm with winds consistently over 60 mph. That’s just not too far from hurricane strength and is deserving of more respect than, say, a 35-mph storm that has weak feeder bands, bad outflow, and an ill-defined center.

Fay would be, say, a “category 3 tropical storm” on a scale of one to three… “don’t panic, but take it seriously.”

Some things which are obvious to some, are not obvious to others.

You would think that would be obvious to everyone, but…

Refuse the absurd.

Hi, sorry it’s been so long. I’ve been working behind the scenes to move the site to a new host. I *think* I’ve found and fixed all the bugs caused by the change– well, no that’s not true. I know there are more out there.

I wasn’t unhappy with the old host, I just got a way better deal at the new one. So what’s new? Well, look and feel of the blog, obviously, plus significant updates in the infrastructure. And the new host is faster.

I’ll also be trying to fix some page anomolies I noted during the rebuild testing… nothing that’s a host issue, just things I haven’t gotten updated yet.

Shoot me a note if you see anything that looks hinky or off… but give it a day or two, as there will be delays with the email service until the DNS cache is flushed worldwide.
