Many thanks to you too. In print, you have no idea what people feel. This is much better.

Sweet.... I can relate: Especially the lawyer/scholar who lived in his head. My Dad had had polio as a young boy and books meant all to him: adventure, escape and a way to new place. Also being "only a girl".

Thank you. I also plead guilty to living as much inside a book as out-- which came in part from illness. I am glad to hear your father/lawyer/scholar found all this . "Only a girl" we can all live without.
