Just wanted everyone to know that we're back in business around here, after a holiday break and some technical problems behind the scenes. Regular blogging resumes tomorrow!

In the meantime (and for some time to come, since there's a lot of it) I can recommend this year's Edge.org question: "What have you changed your mind about?". The index page will get you started. Plenty of good essays are to be found - for example, I just read some extremely sensible stuff from Brian Eno. Enjoy!
