I'm starting this blog to publicize what I'm working on for multiple reasons,
but mostly because I'm not sure how much of what I'm working on will ever get
formally published in a peer-reviewed journal.  I think the next best thing is
putting the software I've developed out there for the others to use or at least
determine what is useful or not.  Secondly, I want others to know what I'm
working on for a variety of reasons.  So, hopefully, whatever I have here will
be useful to someone.  If you do use any of this, please shoot me an email to
let me know you are using it and how.  Thanks.
