Welcome, welcome, welcome, Ladies, Gentlemen and Other, Children of All Ages, Creatures of All Sexes, to the Reverend Edward Morris' Old Time Gnostic Gospel Hour!

This tent goes further back the more you look. You will be in here all day. Share a glimpse behind the carnival, and a ride on the shoulders of these Titans and many more, from one bemused greenie writer who's had to throw his hat into the Blogosphere faster than he's ever had to do anything in his life. I place that hat back on my head, doff it to each and every one of you, and hope that you enjoy the show...
