i Sid — I first got blocked trying to open Matt’s url. So I typed in the long email address and then got the article all in code that looked like Chinese. There was a top box that implied I might get it in another way so I pressed that box and read your terrific article. You can tell by the words I use about the internet that I am still quite the novice. The brain’s plasticity is a bit limited when you’re nearing 80 {next year}, Hope to see you real soon. I have been extremely busy this summer with work and tickets to lots of music and theatre and out of town commitments or you would have seen me in NY before now. LOL grandma
