Marcello Piras writes with news of another published article, of which we present a brief excerpt:

Hi Bill,

How are you? Hope all’s well with you over there. I’m ok here in warm Mexico.

A new essay of mine has come out, again on Joplin. Alas, it’s even longer than the earlier one…   :-)   However, I think you might be interested. You can find it here:

All the best,
