Better late than never is still not better.

To my few but greatly appreciated readers: just a few minutes ago, I discovered, to my horror, that some of you left comments (some going back two years!) that were never read, hence never approved, and hence never posted. All of the comments should not only have been approved (I am hardly in the position of having to shift through thousands upon thousands of them) but also approved promptly. This has finally been done, but it hardly absolves your Tatler of his grievous fault. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. This will not happen again.

The Tatler of 1709 was founded by Jonathan Swift, aka Isaac Bickerstaff. The Taos Tatler was founded by ex-New Yorker Anthony Fountain in 2018, in the same spirit, he hopes, as the original. Please send mail to taostatler@gmail.com.
