  "textContent": "_tl;dr: This post is now obsolete._\n\nUpdate 2021/06/19: I am no longer updating the _Civility and Truth_ newsletter, so there’s no longer any point to subscribing to it. However old posts will remain accessible for the foreseeable future.\n\nI don’t update this blog very frequently, and it’s too much to expect people to check out the web site on a regular basis. Hence I’ve created a new [_Civility and Truth_ newsletter][ctn], and am inviting you to subscribe to it. I’ll use the newsletter to send new _Civility and Truth_ posts direct to your inbox at the same time I post them to the site---or even before I post them to the site, as a reward to subscribers.\n\nI’ll also send out other material that for whatever reason doesn’t warrant a full _Civility and Truth_ post, including links to recommended articles, mini book reviews, and random commentary.\n\nFinally, this is a free newsletter and will remain so for the foreseeable future. Please feel free to forward any of my posts to anyone you think may be interested in in-depth, data-based, non-partisan commentary and analysis of issues relevant to Howard County, Maryland, and the world beyond.\n\nFor further exploration\n\nApparently email lists are the hip new alternative to blogs. (I can remember a time when blogs were the hip new alternative to email lists.)
