Site News, 28-May-2007: Over the next few months, I will be converting the web site from plain HTML to ASP.NET 2.0.  I will leave the original HTML site up and running, so you should still have access to all the pages. However, as pages are created to ASP.NET, you'll see a new look and feel, and there might be some broken links. Please be patient as the transition to ASP.NET 2.0 takes place. Also, I will be switching hosting providers, so there may be a short period during which the web site will be unaccessible, as the DNS servers get updated with the new location. Thank you for your patience and understanding. I hope the transition will be painless for both you and me.
