Footnotes to Plato from the foothills of the Superstition Mountains

A Note to My Readers

Typepad is shutting down effective 30 September.  I have to figure out what to do. So please bear with me.  Hold your comments on previous posts. My best to all of you.

    Thanks, Dmitri. I’ll check it out. I have been bringing posts over ‘by hand’ to Substack. Everybody and his brother has been fleeing Typepad trying to save their content, so of course the Export utility, been overloaded, is stalled. WordPress is swamped too.
    If you or anyone has comments you want to preserve, be sure to snag them by the end of the month.
    But come hell or high water we blog on, one way or the other, ’till death do part us from it.

    Bill,
    Thanks for the heads up. I actually started a “Maverick Philosopher Archive” project to scrape the website and save posts a year or two ago. I’ll restart the project to see if it is of any help.
    As a note of nostalgia, I’ve been a reader on the Typepad site for fifteen and a half years. It has been interesting growing and seeing the world, both technical and non-technical, change over the years.
    Cheers,
    Jeff H

    Hi Jeff,
    Wow! A stroke of good luck. You’ve surfaced just at the right time. You’re just the man I need to talk to, a young guy with IT savvy. I’ve sent you an e-mail requesting your phone #. I’ll call you today if you can work me into your schedule.
    Best to you and yours,
    Bill

    Hi Brother Bill
    You might check out my local network; it is rather small, but everyone here uses it, and it seems highly unlikely to me that it would ever go out of business, because everyone here really depends on it.
    Here it is:
