I didn’t have computer access on the 25th so I’ll say it now. Merry Christmas, or whatever you may celebrate, and Happy New Year.

I got a Kindle for Christmas so you may see my activity on the Dope decline. Lucky you!

I think I will be because of the huge volume of free public domain stuff that is available in electronic form. In the past I’d either have to buy them, go to the library, or read them on a computer, something I found inconvenient.
