So, I've been reading about blogs, and it appears that no one bothers to read anything longer than two paragraphs.  

Thus, this post.  Things don't change much, except possibly our attention spans.  Or maybe that's not true.  Maybe there are now more things in heaven and earth to which one might pay attention.  And we're all bound to pay!

The world turns.  Economies collapse.  A blight upon the face of the green earth we loose with our divided attentions.
