October is nearly over and it has been a very productive month for us. We've managed to produce many original articles and we expect the same next month. Now that the temperatures here are unusually "mild" it's still a good time to go out, but we don't expect this to last in November and December. We've also got plenty of good material scheduled for next year.

This site really seems to "spooks" Microsofters. That's OK, it means we're on the right track. █
