Dave,

Kind words and thoughts. Thank you.

You wondered why I stepped back.... more of a reality of life. When I posted so often, I was heading toward retirement age in a retirement job that was booooring. And so I retired. During that slooow job and my early retirement, I had time to engage in all the BB activities and write.

But I decided to start over, so I went back to school (third grad degree) strictly for fun... and the university hired me part-time and then full-time. Kinda like "You Only Live Twice." Having a wonderful time teaching and working with engineering students on projects.

Still have a yard full of Volvos -- my newest is a '97 850 GLT. Since I'm so busy with students and school activities, Volvos are a bit less of a hobby and more of a functional utility... at this point. That might change.

Best wishes to you, Art, and all the terrific folks on BB. And thanks to Chris V. for alerting me to your letter.

Don
