Dan Breen continues my first reader, thank goodness, and archives my texts; as does my webmaster, Karen Zimmerman. Dorothy Day, who was the West-Coast member of my distributed archive, died while I was writing this one.
I regret this a lot. Dorothy was a good person.
My printer and computers behaved well during the writing until Microsoft, in its infinite wisdom, forced a software update, at the end of which my three computers didn't talk to one another and only one of them recognized my printer. Fortunately, my son Jonathan was able to fix things.
What do people do if their kids aren't geeks? But perhaps there aren't such people nowadays.
I eat well and the house stays clean and neat, which is wholly due to my wife Jo.
I thank all of you for making it possible for me to write.
