Pompeiiana Newsletter on Hiatus through Jan. 13, 2010

Io! Saturnalia!

The Pompeiiana Newsletter blog will be on hiatus from now through January 13th, 2010. I am traveling and will also be running around at the upcoming AIA/APA conference in Anaheim, followed by a short trip to Disneyland and will be away from my PC for weeks. I will resume posting issues on Jan. 13th, and all issues should be posted I'd think by March at which point there will be some sort of fun thing to do to commemorate the occasion of completing this project.

Thanks for reading!
