Nothing to see here...

...not yet anyway. There are a few things I need to figure out before I begin this thing properly and I type this only for those who might somehow stumble upon this work-in-progress. I say I do this blog for my own amusement, and I do... but as with any sort of publishing, doing so merely for one's self quickly becomes tiresome. I welcome any reader, even he/she who may stumble upon this by accident. Real posts will begin very soon. [Since I can't find a way to put captions beneath photos, I'll note here that the artwork above is a detail of William Hogarth's engraving Credulity, Superstition and Fanaticism circa 1762.]
