A Short Diversion

Someone asked my why the silly name Tommy Pain and tommypain1000.blogspot.com. Well, I was feeling a little lazy and short on time. The literary reference is obvious, if somewhat self-inflating and gratuitous. It turned out that someone else got tommypain.blogspot.com first. I just did the quickest simplest thing I could to move onto creating content. So, sloth, conflict, self-importance, and time. Fortunately, the name should prove to be irrelevant - its only a handle or address. Ultimately, people will either find the content stimulating or not. If the former, maybe someone will develop a big idea in response. If the later, well, google doesn't care if I blather.

Content creation is, unfortunately, a slow process for which I have too little time. The last blog clearly needs additional editing, as I knew when it was published. This editing will happen soon, but I needed to see progress by getting something out here in the meantime. BTW, this article is part of a much larger piece that will be published in 8-10 installments.

As I pull logical constructs together, jumps appear where assumed but unexplained analysis and connections need to be teased out to ensure that the good reader understands well enough to make informed decisions regarding the value of the concepts presented. Originally, 8-10 pages of content in this particular thread seemed a likely target. As editing progressed, it became clear that individual articles of 8-10 pages needed to be published to cover my planned subject matter. And as I noted above, it looks like there will be 8-10 of these articles.

By the way, I'm not being cute (but maybe a little lazy) in constantly saying 8-10. These are my estimates for now and it's coincidental that the anticipated page lengths of the chapters is similar to the anticipated number of chapters. All of this may change as more gets committed to type and goes through the process of editing.

For now, this is the end of house-keeping issues.
