I just wanted to take this opportunity to point something out to our readers about how this blog works.

While there are, at present, five contributors, we also encourage anyone who reads this blog to create their own bulletins (i.e. blog posts) about any topic that strikes their fancy. Those bulletins will show up in the right sidebar, along with the front page content.

If we like what we see, the powers that be may promote your bulletin to the front page, as I have done for reference with nickfinity's post below.

This is a community blog, not a vanity project, so feel free to add your own $.02 to the discussion. We'll all be better for it.
