Daniel,

You must be very proud. I sometimes wonder if having a skid bar-owner and womanizer who accomplished nothing in life made it more difficult for me to thrive and become one who is proud of his accomplishments, whereas you had to live up to standards created by a great historian. I suppose that each bears its problems. In any case, keep up the good work.
