An Update

Given the explosion of interest in this blog (total readership now stands at 5), an explanation of our virtual absence is long overdue. Truth be told, we are experiencing a work stoppage. Vik has formed the Hindu Blog Editors Guild (Local 99) to collectively bargain and raise awareness of the deplorable working conditions (forced unpaid overtime, etc.) to which he is currently being subjected. Management and labor are currently at an impasse. We are now in the process of conducting lengthy negotiations, with Mssr. Jason Heeney serving as a somewhat-but-not-really impartial arbitrator. These meetings are being held in Bali. We hope to come to an amicable resolution in short order so that we can assume full operations. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused the five of you (actually, make that four of you since Jason is here with us).
