I am appreciative of your genius in the ability to use many verse forms. Technology landed on us, and so what? We can still use real books to read from and cherish. The screen is anything but a warm place. Good one! Panagiota...our society forgets we have a choice. Use it,

Oh, thank you so much, nette. You've expressed my exact feelings so well. A shame what's happened and what's happening. For so many potential readers, the notion of 'a book' will never register... Shed a tear. :) gw
