Yes, the mine is moving on to a new home at Tumblr. And a new name, SIMULACRA. I tried to move the Mine to its new location but I discovered a hip-hop gentleman had gotten there first. Hence the new name to symbolize a new beginning. So I gave the miners their notice and they seemed quite happy to be above ground and several thanked me  – in four years we didn’t have a single mine wall collapse. Let’s hope the hip-hop world enjoys the same safety record.

Not that we didn’t have our share of mishaps. Readers of this blog have kindly pointed them out wherever they occurred and I’m very grateful to all those who took the trouble to see what the Mine was about. Also thanks to Letterpress who put up with me despite my forgetting to update. And many thanks to my IT expert who led me through many a treacherous path in the Mine -he’s my esteeemed son-in-law, “Chopi” Chopra who lives in Cape Cod.

I hoping I’ll see some of you over at Simulacra, my new home at http://markelpower.tumblr.com.

Fondly,

Mark L. Power
