Sludgie is finally back and fully functional again. Sincere apologies for the delay. I ended up switching servers to deal with the glitches we were having. For those of you visiting regularly, I thank you for your patience. One day there would be nothing here, then the text but no images - everything was just all hanging out. It was an embarrassment, and I'm sorry you had to witness it. Like the girl who lives across the street from me and has loud screaming matches on her front lawn with her boyfriend via cell phone. But fear not - Sludgie has passed through its awkward phase. New posts on the state of the environment (I think it's still there) will be forthcoming... Welcome back.
