Dear Cyndy, Some letters ago you asked for URL's regarding my present writing. They are http://home.earthlink.net/~ej1meyer/diary12/d120219.00 for my criticism of my current efforts, http://home.earthlink.net/~ej1meyer/diary12/d120219.02 for my thoughts about publication and literary politics, and http://home.earthlink.net/~ej1meyer/freunde/e051.html for about 13 pages of an English version of Chapter 51. I recommend that you ignore them all, and spend no time on any. I will try to do better. Margaret and I are well - according to age - as my father was wont to say. I've decided to spend several hours each day on house repairs, e.g. installing a disconnect switch for the electric hot water heater, and installing a second 24 V transformer for the air-conditioner control board. The single transformer which I installed in 2002 has been overloaded all these years. Why the control board put up with the deficiency for so many years, is a mystery. I hope you and Ned are happy and well. Good night. Jochen
