I've been avoiding this. So many have wished you a wonderful birthday and said such great things about you that I have indeed been hesitant to let you know what is really in my heart for a "Ukelin Zinger" such as yourself.

Allan, I want you to know that there is a telescope at Ohio Wesleyan just north of here and if you were to mount it somehow INSIDE the one at Mt. Palomar so as to increase the power and then to somehow project the images from Hubble through them so you could see into the depths of the universe, farther than anyone has seen before.....If you were to peer into that combination of magnifying power than you would still not be able to detect any interest I might have in your birthday. But Best Wishes anyway.
