colin, Sorry to hear of the serious illnesses within your circle. I believe in living in the 'here and now', too. What you say is true, life is so fragile, and as far as we know, a one shot deal. But I also embrace the Native American notion that it is wise to consider the next seven generations when considering the outcome of your (or our) actions. One day we will not be here, but our actions as individuals, as well as nations will still be felt. RR "short sighted businessman nothing lasts for long"
