- Normally Joan and I are at least 90 degrees apart in any vector (i.e.,
- she may be headed toward the same general area as I am, but from a
- totally different origin), but this time I can only sit back and yowl a
- resounding "Brava!"
-
- Except that I will add that I am most in agreement with her comments
- upon the sharpening of writing and thinking; I find that it has stood
- me in great stead as I embark on a second, academic career. (Still in
- the embarkation phase, for those who are interested.)
