clay we would not have gone down in six hearts redoubled if you had not assumed that i knew what i was doing, but then you always were a maverick. nobody can capture you in words (or formulas), but in my mind you will always be 17, impetuous and imperturbed.... to the n-th degree and the limit superior. thank you for your light. safe journey dear friend.
