Hello Wonderful Readers

I have a nice announcement!

Starting February 2, 2026, I’ll be writing regularly for THE NEWTON BEACON, a local, independent, nonprofit, nonpartisan, on-line newspaper. As you may know, for more than ten years, I had a column in the Newton TAB,
which closed in 2022. I hope this affiliation with THE NEWTON BEACON will help me re- connect with former TAB readers and link with new people.

The difference will be that my postings will now appear first on THE BEACON website and, within a day or so, they will show up on my own site. I will be jotting down my reflections as I have been doing all along. You will still be able to make comments and contact me through my blog.

I’m excited about this expanded opportunity to reach out! Thanks for continually offering me positive encouragement to keep writing about the issues we care so much about.
