Just wanted to alert readers to a series that began this morning: It is “Notes on India,” under the rubric Impromptus. The first installment is here. There’ll be eight of these babies, eight parts, running to Thursday of next week. Some not-uninteresting stuff in there. After next week, regular Impromptus will resume (irregularly!). In the meantime, I may be popping off here in “The Corner” from time to time. Thanks, and see you.
