A quick update on the hospital stay and some technical issues arising from it ...

I have confirmed that the rupture is between L3 and L4 and that it is causing the pain that pretty much disabled me for the past few days. Tomorrow we will try an epidural cortisone injection to see whether that resolves the problem enough to avoid surgery. I should know within the next couple of days whether it will do the trick. Some of you had commented and e-mailed with that suggestion, and it looks like you were correct.

I do have Internet access and can keep up with the news and blogging, and I can get e-mails, but for some reason I am unable to send e-mail. I do not know whether that is a problem with the hospital connection or with my hosting service, but I'm trying to get it resolved. If you're expecting a response from me, it may not be forthcoming.

Trackbacks still work wonderfully after the guys from Hyscience fixed the problem for me. Some trackbacks get stuck in the junk algorithm and have to be manually approved by me. If you're not seeing your trackback, it will probably appear in the next few hours when I get a chance to approve it. That may take a little longer over the next couple of days, for obvious reasons!

Okay, now, back to work ...
