There is the little volume in the “kaplaken” series that I mentioned in my last post.

Let's try to start with at least one noteworthy article per month. How about that?
In any case, thanks to everyone who has stayed with me during the long periods of dead air, and a warm welcome to anyone who feels like doing it now!
