Certainly, but only if I can come and visit. I've heard it's lovely up there.

"Love may fail, but courtesy will prevail." - I though that was Vonnegut, but the top google hits attribute it to "a fan of Vonnegut". Oops, a more direct reference: Kurt Vonnegut claims that his work was correctly su mmed up by a "young stranger" in the following words: "Love may fail, but courtesy will prevail." " (Jailbird, New York: Dell, 1979, pp. 9-10.) iteachnet.org Which leads me to another old favorite: A poem from The Books of Bokonon: Tiger got to hunt, Bird got to fly; Man got to sit and wonder, "Why, why, why?" Tiger got to sleep, Bird got to land, Man got to tell himself he understand. And from the same source, on the black side: The Fourteenth Book of Bokonon: "What Can a Thoughtful Man Hope for Mankind on Earth, Given the Experience of the Past Million Years?" Nothing. acad.fandm.edu Cheers, Dan.
