There was a crack in the rind, but it looks more like it was poked with something. I don't recall dropping it, but it looks like it hit the edge of a chopstick. Anyway, that corrupted the rind, and sure enough, there's been a blue incursion. So, this morning I cut that out, and I think I've got it (so it doesn't progress through the cheese). I then filled the hole with regular table salt (to sterilize the wound, so to speak) and will dump the excess salt later this after noon. Will see how that goes. If it looks to be progressing, I may not be able to age this one much longer, so I'll try it young and see if it is one I might make again (who am I kidding, of course I will, if it's good, I'll make it, if I'm not pleased, I'll just assume it was too young and will try again.)
