Howdy again, Bill,
I know I said something different last week, but that was then.
Today I'll say: Give me a stone Buddha any day; flesh-and-blood
Buddhas are a dime a dozen.
With cat-fur brush and store-bought-en ink, I write:
Stone Buddha, most good.
Flesh and blood Buddha: ten cents
for fresh pack of Twelve.

I'm glad for the reversal; let history tell its story unequivocally.

Dunno why to make predictions. But the deal is a square one, and sealed.
Wishing all Strong practice, --J.
