Freed at last from Userland's Radio!

Another refugee from Radio makes a clean break. I just finished moving the last of my old Radio entries over to Movable Type, using Bill Kearny's radio.exporter tool. Thanks, Bill! It seems to have gone ok -- the only glitch that I have found so far is that things I had as drafts in Radio, unfinished thoughts and such, seem to have been published over on this site. And now it takes a l-o-n-g time for my site to rebuild -- I need to figure out what Phil is talking about. And I'm sure that next time I look at the site, I'll find a bunch of things broken, but at the moment it feels great. I should only have to run Radio one more time, when I insert the Robert's refresh code.

I took a long time writing up a how-to as I went along, because I couldn't find a good one, and I suspect that a lot more people will be doing this, especially if Salon does go under (I hope not). I'll clean it up and post it in the next couple of days.
