Yes. I remember 2001. Only it was not "The Space Odyssey" that I experienced. I look back on that era and wonder "What would Hank Do?"
And I think he would do as I suggested. Find a way to shelter those dear to him from the upcoming turmoil of the next sixteen years, and hide himself and others where they could not be easily seen. At least that is what *I* would hope he would do.
Then again, I am a retired old man. What do I know about the people I work with in my retirement. Of course, my travel arrangements are a little unusual. But that's ok. I don't seem to be waiting in airports very much.
Thank you all for reading this missive. And I apologize for being so long in getting it finished. And thank you all for your indulgence in reading the few works I put together.
