Sorry for the forced hiatus — our host server was experiencing some major issues (still being researched) that impacted MovableType's ability to work and play well with the database libraries. We appear to be functioning properly, and expect to be able to return to business as usual with a new Rant up by tomorrow morning at the latest.

If we suddenly stop posting again, it's a safe bet that the problems are back. Also, if you experience any trouble leaving comments or sending trackback pings, please let us know via our Contact page.

Thanks,
The Two Percent Company.
