All Things Must Pass

I began Citizen K. three years ago because I wanted to write about whatever I wanted to write about. I have made some wonderful friends in the process, and have enjoyed every minute of it. I've also learned and, I trust, honed my writing skills.

In the past several months, I've discovered something that I want to write about in particular. So, in the next couple of weeks, I'll be transitioning my efforts from Citizen K. to Health Matters, which I hope will serve as a forum for reasoned discourse about health care, ranging from policy to specific issues such as public health, health technology, health literacy, compensation, and overtreatment. In particular, I want to explore the health care systems of other nations with the idea of learning from them, something that Americans resist to near pathological degree. I invite you to join me.

Citizen K. will be around until the first of the year. Whatever you may have learned from me pales compared to what I have learned from you.

Your new project sounds fascinating. See you at the new blog.

**sniff** This is sad. I'm gonna miss the Sunday funnies, the links to other blogs (especially the music reviews and photography), the trips to Ireland, and your musical finds. Health care issues are all well and good, and I'll certainly keep up with the new blog, but there's more to you than that, and it's the other parts I'll miss most!

I look forward to educating myself by reading your new blog.

But you can keep this one going as well, can't you?
