   Hi! Ardith,

   In my working career I experienced many folk dying (don't worry, it was 'old   
   age' in many cases).  Now, in my older years, I often wonder who else would   
   remember them.  Then, I congratulate myself for at least I can still remember   
   them.   
      
   These days I sometimes 'come to' from having carried on a lecture to my house   
   mates: one Aussie Lorikeet (who hates me) and one South American Sun Conure.    
   It pays in one's latter years to enjoy a captive audience, and, also to still   
   have the ability to recover consciousness.  ;)   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
