Ur Commenters: Please Stay Tuned!

A public service announcement

Leadership Journal April 11, 2013

Hey, Urthlings –

We’re resolving an issue with Ur’s comment feature, and commenting is temporarily down. But don’t let this phase you! Save those pithy thoughts and deep insights, we’re expecting to be back online and ready to share your comments in the extremely near future.

Thanks for being patient. I suggest that you use the down time to craft your responses into timeless prose, worthy of being enshrined on this, the ministry site for the ages.
