My old blog site at yoo.temple.edu has been down for some time as it became a magnet for the spammers who are looking for a place to post their “comments”. Although I could have spent hours to reconfigure the server to prevent this from happening, I did not have time or will to do it. So, a simple solution was to turn the server off. As I was thinking about other ways to blog, it seems to me that it might be a good idea to get my own domain name and host my site outside of the university’s network. After poking here and there, I decided to start my new blog here at TypePad. Once it is settled, I will get my own domain name.

So, here it is. My very first blog here. As I did when I was very active with my own blog back at Case, I will try to write at least once a day. I will also introduce myself and my work through this new site as well.
