Mind's Eye Re: Mind Courtesies

Are you kidding? :-) I could probably write a book about my internet
experiences prior to Minds Eye. Anyway, to keep on topic, my prayers
must have been courteous as I got the lawn/snow guy I wanted. Now, I
just hope he never checks the prices my neighbors are paying!

Yes- there is a certain charm in the drifting about but I must say you
do a great job of roping us back on path plus you have such
interesting thoughts and topics. Even when I am lost in your
theoreticals- formulas- etc., I'd like to think you are stirring some
latent brain area that was quashed in my schooling. I find you are a
patient gentleman. Thank you.
