I’ve been meaning to get back to writing for a good long while now, but as noted earlier, various events have gotten in the way. Now, however, I’m sitting in my hotel room in London, sipping my third (or fourth) glass of wine, after a rather pleasant day...

As indicated in my post earlier today, it’s been a crazy couple of weeks for me. What with the demands my clients are making of me and the requirements of babysitting (and that is the correct term) my other team members, I’ve had precious little time...
