Because writing down things is one of the only ways to remember how important something is. Besides, anyone can think up of anything. Writing something down and then actually reading it will take you places. Mootilda thought it would take her around the world on a train, so she is getting ready to start her own website also. If I knew she would take my words literally, I would have talked about eating ice cream instead of maintaining a site. Online, I started writing around 1995, and this site was originally started at the end of 2001, and then went on a small vacation around the start of 2003. Now it’s back again.

Thanks again for visiting. As they say, “Long time no see.”
