David,

A very helpful gift to us all. Rod's poetry based on Journey to the East is also a great gift. Thanks to you both for sharing. Those of us working in the archives deeply appreciate this independent work done after our corporate efforts.

Grace & Peace,

Jack

It always cracks me up that we value the magic so much and then insist on spending our time in trying to "rationally" find it. Paradox, irony, folly.
