Hi Ron,

I'm just grouchy because I'm on my first reading of the elsewhere mentioned 
book, and it might as well be written in Romanian.  I hate feeling so 
stupid.  But I can be tenacious, and will read it a couple of times. 
Hopefully, some understanding will come of it.  If not now, later. 
Hopefully.  Hopefully.  Hopefully.

You sound like you catch on fast.  You're doing great.
