After some vacation in the French countryside by my family, but without any Internet connection, I am back. I had no connection but still my good Toshiba laptop. The old fellow enabled me to prepare some articles I will release in the very next days.

Yep, this is my fiftieth post. I am quite happy of this new version of elrst.com as it enables me to blog on sustainable development related topics.
