+** Don't start =elnode= when Emacs starts
+
+   Elnode is an awesome project and I'm still looking for a moment
+   where I have the inspiration and time to actually do something with
+   it. I started at some point, but then I couldn't get the cookies to
+   work and I switched over to using Common Lisp, only to eventually
+   stop developing the project because there was not chance of it
+   seeing any use in the foreseeable future.
+
+   There is one little annoyance, though, and that is the fact that
+   elnode will start itself up when Emacs starts. I don't want that.
+
+   This bit of code can't be put in an =eval-after-load= or anything
+   like that because by the time it would be evaluated, elnode would
+   already have started.
+
+   *Note:* See my [[Vacuous defvar][note]] on vacuous defvar for this use of =defvar=.
