Interruption in Publishing of Blog

Sorry, friends, for the interruption. I returned from Columbus tonight to find a note from one of my publishers. While we discuss some possibilities related to this ongoing and developing story, I need to take the pieces I've already posted out of public domain. I'll see what can be worked out and hope to be back shortly.
