UPDATE: Thursday, February 7, 2008; I've just installed the newest Drupal theme, Tapestry from RoopleThemes; it's so new it's still undergoing beta testing.  This theme is, IMHO, BOLD, STRIKING and BEAUTIFUL, and it needs a little tweaking, particularly line heights here and there.

Observers of this site may note that new.ctrout.com has been a "new" version for quite some time. What's going on, they may ask. We'll here's my story.

My intent is to share some of my thoughts, some that are serious, and more that are lighthearted. I hope that all may be edifying. Most of the site will be one-way, me to you, but my intent is to solicit some of your ideas for future projects.

I started construction in January 2005. Like most web sites, construction will probably never end. I'll be satisfied if it achieves a useful status some day.
