The "Stranger" and the "Land"

Although Robert Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land was, and is, my favorite science fiction classic, his novel itself had little to do with my selection of a blog name. Initially, it described how I perceived myself when I first ventured into the "blogdom." I had been receiving Ray Comfort's posts by email for several months, and wondered where all these "comments" were that Ray sometimes referred to. After I accidently found them, it took me a few more weeks to figure out how to get a comment published. When I clicked on "publish" and it didn't immediately take my comment, I thought it was because I was doing something wrong. I was definitely a stranger in what was to me a very strange land.

Thanks to my four "charter" followers for your patience, but especially to Ryk. He has been waiting for so long that I see he has become a skeleton. No cob-webs?
