I deeply appreciate the kind words and felicitations, both public and private. It was important to us to make a formal announcement here since y'all comprise the community we met in (with a little help from our friend ) .

And indeed, I ain't goin' nowhere... I'll continue to slouch toward Pooh-Bahdom -- perhaps to achieve it by AWADtalk's second anniversary -- harrumphingŪ all the way.

(note to CapK: a Southern sauna is just the thang to leach out the impurities y'all'll have collected along the way )
