Hi Coly- I am doing okay. Trying to keep my mind from wandering and going to dark (assumptive) places. Taxing, isn't it? Work is super busy, keeping me stressed and occupied. You?

Altair - I hope you are doing well. Thank you for your kindness. I have greatly enjoyed your companionship as well as we both travel along the same river.

A.
I'm not too sure on my future with this forum right now.
Andrew, we are not allowed due to Forum policies to post any type of personal info such as email addresses, home addresses, phone numbers, etc. Posting such info is a sure fire way of getting put on moderation or even banned if a person continues to try to post such stuff. Sorry!

job - Sorry if I offended. I completely understand the rational and real reasons for this policy. Many of us here are in a delicate spot and this policy is a wise one for the safety of the members and the integrity of the community.
Sad though - I was so looking forward to sharing a couple of glasses of Chianti with Altair when she comes up here.

You didn't offend anyone...just thought you should be reminded of the policy so that you wouldn't get put on moderation. It's not a problem...but this policy is put in place to protect the posters, etc. We have had a few trolls in the past that have posted to the posters and that's why the info is not longer allowed here.
What you and Altair can do is when she's ready to come up for a visit, come here and tell her where a meeting spot will be and possibly what color bow tie you will be wearing.
You still can share a couple of glasses of Chianti...but you need to think outside the box.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
Let me think about it. You are miles ahead of me in your ability to collate data and figure things out and your statistical skills leave mine in the dust. The biggest challenge is to solve the puzzle without violating the rules of the forum. Those rules were put in place for very good reasons. People do violate them from time to time but somehow I feel that anything I write seems to get a big audience so the solution needs to be elegant, effective which means simple.
I will indeed keep an eye on your thread my friend. We will figure a way to do this keeping within the spirit and the letter of the forum rules.
Let's start perhaps with adding to the body of data. Have you ever read an author called Terry Pratchett? If you liked Douglas Adams you will enjoy him. As a sampler you may want to try a book called "Witches Abroad" - I've referenced it in my own writing a fair bit. It has strong female characters who do what is "right" regardless of the cost.
Do you have a book recommendation for me? I'm currently re-reading the EE Doc Smith Lensman series for about the 12th time.

If you run into problems thinking outside the box, with the clues that you've been providing this morning, I'll give you a clue you have access to this area.
Also, there are a number of posters that post on FB. Some have DB behind their names on FB.
