Where are the older posts?

In October 2011 the opinionation underwent a change where we ‘started over’ with a new masthead and new blog.

This was to allow the site to have a ‘fresh start’.

A better explanation of this can be found, on the old blog, here.

The older posts from 2008 – 2011 are found here.

Many posts from the old site will be redone, repolished and presented in a better way here on the new blog.

Most, thankfully, will be left in the archives.

We hope you enjoy the new site!
