Citation Notice

In the past, I have been a very bad blogger indeed, and have not always cited my sources. (I am trying extra hard now to make sure that going forward, things are cited properly!)

I am also (slowly) going back through old posts and providing sources and citations. This will be an ongoing project, and may take a while, so please be patient.

All that being said, if you see something on my blog that is improperly or not at all cited and/or credited, and you'd like that information right away - please, please let me know, and I'll get the post in question updated ASAP!
