Since I left the San Francisco Bay Area and crashed my sister's place in Chihuahua, Mexico, I've had a lot more free time on my hands. All I do from sunup to sundown (way past sundown) is work on Iranian.com. How many hours is that? A lot.

But for many hours I'm not actually doing anything. I'm just browsing and reading and browsing and reading. And I stare at the wall for a good period of time. I can't even watch TV because of the faulty satellite card.

In the meantime, my dear moderators have been working very hard policing the site and checking all the comments for bad behavior. They have also been moderating the news headlines and occasionally the blogs.

That's a lot of work for people who have jobs and a full, busy life. Not to mention the headache and stress of dealing with anonymous and not-so-anonymous nutjobs and repeat offenders. Way too much work and a big hassle for volunteers.

So from today they can take a much-deserved rest and concentrate on posting content with peace of mind.

Yes! From now on you'll be dealing with me and only me! Stop your detective work in trying to find out who's deleting and featuring what. Now you know who to yell at!

My sincerest thanks to the moderators for their wonderful, and may add thankless, work. I'll always be indebted to them. And I hope one day they'll still be able to help out when I'm desperate.
