Arthur Silber has surfaced briefly, to bring word that he is still with us — which is great news — but also that he is still suffering horribly from very serious health issues. As we’ve often noted here before, Arthur’s blog is his sole means of support, and thus his long, illness-induced silences inevitably cut deeply into his traffic, and his contributions — and precisely when support is most urgently needed. It’s a vicious cycle, so if you have any cash to spare to help break it, head on over to Arthur’s place and lay some coinage on him.
While you are there, do yourself the favor of browing the archives and the highlighted posts and series, where you will find yourself engaged with one of the toughest, most trenchant minds of our time.
