Not to let your overly generous words

Not to let your overly generous words a few emails back go unanswered: Please know that after Peace Corps and building a homestead from scratch, seeing this unfold from my vantage point has been the neatest (that's "grooviest" to you) thing ever. I thank you for allowing a complete stranger to accost you as you fled the meeting that night. Just grant me a brief mention in your MacArthur Genius Award memoirs. And for goodness' sake, have a splendid Christmas and a marvelous New Year!
