“As you get older it is harder to have heroes, but it is sort of necessary.”
Ernest Hemingway
“In the central place of every heart there is a recording chamber.  So long as it receives a message of beauty, hope, cheer, and courage – so long are you young.  When the wires are all down and our heart is covered with the snow of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and only then, are you grown old.”  ~Douglas MacArthur

Seriously, thank you.  There’s been a change for the better.  It’s been great.  Gives me hope.  And really, I don’t like being able to see what I’m doing in the gloom.  We need to go back to the old lighting.  Think that’ll fly with KCP&R?
