It is many years out of date now, however, and over the years (even before joining FFL) I've occasionally considered removing it, as I've come to value simplicity and ordinariness more and more, but each time someone has written me to thank me for writing it, so with some ambivalence I have let it stand. It is in essence a letter to some of my past selves, some of whom would have *loved* to read it! Perhaps someday I'll update it to reflect more of my current thinking ... or perhaps not. :-) *L*L*L*
