Changed Message Archive Format

I went nuts today try­ing to fig­ure out a prob­lem with this website–I could­n’t cre­ate an entry with a link to Den­nis’ mes­sage. For some rea­son Mov­able Type (the soft­ware that main­tains this site) would­n’t save any­thing with the link text in it. It drove me up the wall!

Any­way, I wound up recon­fig­ur­ing the entire way that I archive mes­sages on this site before final­ly decid­ing to change the text direct­ly in the data­base.

I men­tion all this to explain why the front page is all links to past messages–a tem­po­rary byprod­uct of the afore­men­tioned recon­fig­u­ra­tion. It will pass as new con­tent is added.
