A real-bellringer for me, Anne-Lise. I.e., it resonates (rings a bell) with me, and it's now a FAVE. Best wishes, Gershon

We really have to 'hand it to you,' Anne-Lise. Your picture-poem panorama was truly poignant, deserving of its first-place podium trophy. … If you ever have a free moment, check out the hands of master Venetian glass-blower, Lino Tagliapetra. I saw them 10 years ago when he was 82, and putting in 12 hours a day in his studio in Seattle, WA. AMAZING. :) gw
