If you are only popping in to see 'what's new,' use the current year's "Yearbook," a chronological listing of entries made this year located under Item A in the content lists below.

The last item for 2009 was this interview that has gotten me mostly kudos from both national and international colleagues and friends. It also tells you something about what I did for a living: the Administration is pulling the plug on my Project, the one I discuss in the above interview, and my resume is posted here in case one of you visitors is curious.

As of July 9, 2010, I have a written offer of a new job with the Department of Energy in Carlsbad, New Mexico. By mid-August, I have to report to work there. --abe--

The old "link-outline" is still here but not being maintained (all its listings are now part of A, B and C above).

The four home pages for the four websites I combined into one still exist, they serve as 'chapter headings' deeper in the site, but are no longer being added to, so there is no longer a link here: all their content has been moved onto A and B above.
