Wow, what happened?  I blinked, and poof! completely missed October.  I guess it had something to do with traveling almost continuously - I have been to San Diego multiple times, but also Beijing, Shanghai, and Seoul (!) - and something to do with being extraordinarily busy with work... but also it has a lot to do with some personal tuning I've been doing, about which I will have more to say "soon"...

I might even do some catchup posts, you never know.  Today I am off to Houston, Spokane, and Portland, which might mean I have blogging time and might mean I have no time at all.  As usual please stay tuned!
