This is a word from your friendly neighborhood blog admin.  This blog software has been completely rewritten from scratch by me, ghiotion.  All the content and user accounts were migrated, but we decided not to migrate your comments due to the complexity of doing so.  That, and the unbelievable amount of blogspam.  The new software should be much faster and more reliable.  At some point, I will be posting the source code for this blog at the bottom of the page for anyone who's interested.  Thanks and let me know if you have any problems.  My email is ghiotion@gmail.com.
