Well, the book is essentially done and awaiting the final go ahead to enter production in hardback, paperback, and e-book versions in September.

I met with some other folks who are interested in my Gettysburg "what if" staff simulation; I am working with a game designer to produce the prototype so that I can demonstrate it to them and some of their corporate clients in the fall. We are even looking at supplementing it with an "app" to increase its attractiveness to the younger types who have never known what it is like to live and work without computers.
As for LSTG, I am willing to give it until the end of the year to see if it is ever going to deliver on the initial tailings processing. Much will depend between now and then on how much news (if any) comes from Dan and company.
