An Editorial Aside

Just a quick note: I was talking to my wife about what I have written so far, and she said my writing sounded sarcastic. I think that was occasionally true. I just edited the posts I already made to remove the most offensive parts. There are some things left that could be improved, but that would take more time than I have right now. I apologize for that, and I'll try to keep that tone from creeping in in the future.

I also fixed some typos.
