Though there is a two-year entry gap before a half-year ago, it has run at the maximum content level in the past half year. The site now has <strong>259,000 words<\/strong>, not including comments, and 1400 photos. That is like 3 or 4 books.

Of course, I will too.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you have something to say &#8211; and you probably do &#8211; maybe to put in another side of thought &#8211; whatever &#8211; <strong>I hope you will give it a go.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Thank you<\/strong>, dear readers!<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are very few!
