Some updates:

Since early this year about the time I got the site moved to the new server I’ve been having some somewhat debilitating, though expected to be temporary, health issues that have made working on the site or doing much dedicated computer time difficult.

It’s not that I don’t want to continue working on the site it’s just been difficult. I expect that to be resolved fairly soon before the end of the year.

In the outside world we’re coming up on an election that will be like none before in our history.

If one side wins the U.S. will quickly become a One Party State like California and rapidly decline into economic failure likely followed by social collapse of our major cities. Think the streets of LA nationwide. If the other side wins we’re likely to see violence in the streets of pretty much every major city in the country as well as a bureaucracy which simply refuses to carry out instructions.

In an even more dangerous scenario an incoming Congress could refuse to certify the Electoral College winner, disqualify that candidate and instead certify the Electoral College loser as the new President. That scenario could literally spark a Civil War in the U.S.

That any of those situations are actually possible and in fact probable says the country is in a dire situation with no easy or simple solutions.

I urge everyone to stay alert, keep your heads down, avoid public spaces after Election Day until things are sorted out.
