So... /:-)

We have an artist staying with us tonight.  Very nice, charming fella, traveling around Indiana to sell prints of his work to stores hereabouts.  We chatted a bit about the environment, the industrialization of third world countries, and the pros and cons of various cities.  I recommended a couple of good restaurants for when he hits Bloomington tomorrow, and he wishes more people would buy prints of his heron painting and wishes me luck on my book. 

It was nice to talk to a reasonably intelligent person out of the blue... Most of the people we get around here.... well, aren't, very... :-|
