I like your comment better than my monoku, Mahtab! You might want to post it as a senryu or some such! Peace and Light, Gershon

Yes! --Exactly! Lovely insight. When I took my kids to my classes occasionally, they came home and told Mom/my wife that "Dad just plays with the students." ---But they almost all learned conversational English in no time... Thanks, Maureen! :-) gw
