I have a bad case of blogstipation: pent up posts rattling in my head after two weeks on the road. My first was in Whatcom County, Washington, the week before their Democratic caucuses, with a day in Vancouver. I had part of a weekend home, then off to the Electronic Democracy Teach-In and O'Reilly Emerging Technology conference in San Diego. And I'm back. And catching up on email, sleep, surfing, the local campaign (how strange that they're prospering without me).

This by way of letting you know that I'm about to go running off at the blog for the next few days.
