Thank you for your interest. Following is an index of articles published on LinkedIn. Certain numbers are omitted or do not follow systematically by expired advertisement or other irregularity. When I first began to publish articles on LinkedIn, I did not expect to publish so many articles, or so often, or on so many diverse topics. Such as they are, and with all faults. But having now the opportunity to reflect upon the articles published over a period of time, I thought it might be helpful—for the purpose of future reference—to provide an easily accessible index. Thank you for reading. ~ Gregg Zegarelli
