Please note that messages sent to me regarding Newted Community business will not get an immediate reply over the next week or two. I am taking a break from all things computer related and will be digging into some other projects for a bit. This unfortunately means that the turnaround time for any new requests [...]

As Groucho Marx once quipped: “Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.” Not even a full month has passed and yet another update to the Newtons Around The World gallery has landed in our collective lap.
