Helden, this is a message from my Mom in Boston.
She calls each night to chat and read to me from her
current novel in progress. At the conclusion of tonight's
call I read her your 'Silly Signs' post. Must confess, she's
a happy soul but I haven't heard her laugh so much
in one sitting in years. She asked me to be sure to
thank 'that nice man in Scotland'. My thanks too. -gb
