It appears I wasn't nearly as original as I thought I was

Well, I didn't really ever think I was being original, but still.

Have no fear that this is an update in lieu of a real post; I have a larger post coming up hopefully in the next 24 hours.  The last one was the massive obstruction to all that comes after, so if I'm at all diligent, you should expect a new post once a week, maybe even more, while I catch up to present events.  Thanks for your patience, folks.
