Another two months' pause

You deserve an update on decisions about the future of this weblog, but these decisions await information inputs that simply aren't available yet (sigh). In two months (late May), I will either re-start this weblog or post a heartfelt thanks and close this enjoyable writing project.

Parke, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you will return... I enjoy your perspective. But I certainly understand, real life sometimes demands our attention in other places.

Very mysterious, indeed. Information inputs?

Hoping you restart!

Interestingly scary story you might have an interest in...

"This thing has immense potential for social and human destruction." Startling words - but spoken by the father of the Green Revolution, Nobel laureate Norman Borlaug, they are not easily dismissed.

An infection is coming, and almost no one has heard about it. This infection isn't going to give you flu, or TB. In fact, it isn't interested in you at all. It is after the wheat plants that feed more people than any other single food source on the planet. And because of cutbacks in international research, we aren't prepared. The famines that were banished by the advent of disease-resistant crops in the Green Revolution of the 1960s could return, Borlaug told New Scientist

Likewise, hope you will return. Haven't commented on the blog, but have found the coverage of food policy to be really interesting reading.
