I will be traveling to Latin America and Antarctica for the next three weeks. Blogging during the balance of February will be (a) irregular, and (b) travel-focused. I will try to send an entry from Ushuaia, Argentina, which felt like the end of the world when I was there three years ago. I'll also try for impressionistic posts from Buenos Aires, Iguassu Falls and Rio de Janeiro.
This blog will be back to its ususal fare of domestic politics and world affairs in March. Have a good February....
