Not Something About Automation Fair


Don't get me wrong. I'm not dissing Rockwell Automation here. It's just that when we're in the middle of producing show dailies at events such as Automation Fair, we get pretty focused. So I'm taking a break here to see what's happening in the rest of the world. For AF updates, go here. For a bit of other news, stick with me.

A little personal update-- I'm taking a short leave


First, I want to take this time to thank everyone who has sent condolences on my wife's death, and all those who contributed to the Corgi Fund and other Corgi charities in her name. I am humbled by this outpouring of caring and support. Thank you.

I've decided to take a couple of weeks off. I'm leaving the magazine in Nancy Bartels' capable hands, and the website in Katherine Bonfante's.

I'll be back in time to attend Automation Fair, and report from there.
