He hasn't been posting due to some technical difficulties and a busy schedule with square dancing. He tells me there has been a heavy snowfall today where he lives. I told him I was looking at blue skies and 26 degrees... It is indeed a remarkable world we live in. No cause for concern, and I hope we'll be able to have his wise counsel for many years to come.

If he sees fit to respond and you to reply then please, by all means, feel free to relay to him my good wishes for his sound health... and his response will be, if all goes truly well, 'Who are you talking about?'
