stamina to answer all of your good wishes, I am substituting for him. I have
received a number of nice e-mails which I have dutifully taken to him daily. I
can assure you that he reads them all and that it heartens him during these days
that he still has so many fans. Keep the comments coming in especially if you
can also tell him how his works have had an effect on your lives. Many have said
that they learned to read because they wanted to know what appeared in the
little balloons. <A href="mailto:gwtank@msn.com">gwtank@msn.com</A></FONT></DIV>
