Just stopping by to say, "I miss you and your blog!" It's been a while since I was here and I see I've got lots of catch up on.
FYI - I think Vegas in December will provide lots of new blogging material!
Anyone else here(out there) want JF to join me in Vegas in December?

Causation! Causality is the relation between cause and effect. Causation is the action of causing something.
