This is a special edition of Geek Reading for one simple reason — I am taking a break from posting Geek Reading for a while. Life and work are always very busy and I am hoping to get back to writing again. Maybe in the near future I will post an original article or opinion, and get back to what I really enjoyed but haven't had time for lately. Geek Reading will probably reappear eventually, but I have to think about the right direction for it. Thanks to everyone who has been reading and sharing Geek Reading for the past few years!
As always, enjoy today's items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
