This blog reflects initial prototyping for my creation of a subject area blog. The lower section contains blogs that I publicly follow. The 'core' middle section contains specific re-posts of specific interest, related comments, or original postings of my authorized posters. If you care to post, or have any suggestions, or comments, etc., please e-mail me.
