This really is great, Jill! As have been ALL your snapshots. I have also been greatly appreciating the list's snapshots in general for at least several weeks now. Unfortunately a combination of foreign travel, computer crack-up and a nauseating surplus of spam plus radio-work has kept me away from the company of your decent society. Anyfootpath, computer sorted out, busy sorting out stuff now, browsing through literally hundreds of emails - and will even respond to one or two, esp. if adressed to me directly. And I'll even post my own snapshots, once I get organized, which I've been diligently composing on the designated Wednesdays. Would simply hate myself for missing even one. Basically, I'm here, receiving mail while unable to send even though I love the WORLD and PoetryEtc.
