About
The last regular posting at the What in the World? website was in December 2024. This new Post Scripts website contains the "WITW special editions" and the occasional shorter posts published since then. The Readings section has selected short passages from other sources.
Note: Links to some of the older posts on the What in the World site ("the archives") may not bring you directly to that post. If this happens, scroll down a couple pages.
