Dan:

Why, thank you, Andre! Lila's Child was and is a labor of love. The
money means very little. To be honest, based on the time I put into LC
and the money that it has generated, I figure I've earned about a buck
an hour. Not too many people work for a dollar an hour these days, do
they...

It pleases me that others find value there.

Thanks again,

Dan
