I also wanted to issue a reminder for all my readers to check out our reading selections in the right sidebar. Up to now, I haven't been real careful about updating my reading because I sometimes read more than a book a week, so it just seems dumb to put stuff up for a couple days. But now I'm getting into some more interesting topics, so I thought people may want to comment or question stuff that I'm reading. I type reading notes for many of these books before class which could easily be converted into postings, so if somehting I'm reading catches your interest, email me and I'll post something with a line for comments.

Also, I am now accepting offers for guest bloggers. If something is on your mind, email your thoughts to me. If I think it fits in with this page and is worth a post, I'll give you a temporary log-in name and a password to post. The only difference between this and simply posting a comment yourself is that it will appear as upper-level, "frontpage" material, with an independent line for comments. One caveat--I will only give this option to people I know personally--no weirdos highjacking my site!
