Description: I leave The Gadfly 3200 posts strong and with more followers that I could have ever expected or imagined. I leave like Frost’s woodchopper who simply packed up and left his wood-pile — “his handiwork on which he spent himself” — “a cord of maple, cut and split / And piled—and measured, four by four by eight” — because he was “someone who lived in turning to fresh tasks.” Gadfly is a man who lives in turning to fresh tasks. “I begin, therefore I am” has always been his motto. Time for a new beginning.
