I cannot leave this incredible idyll without saying thank you to you amazing, powerful, inspired Mudcatters. LEJ, Peter T., Spaw, Caitrin, Jen, Barky, Mbo, DTAM, katLady, MMario...all of you...this has been a really wonderful journey. Forgive me my anachronistic clippages and my typos, and my blundering into your finespun visions; and thank you for the warmth, wit, craft, brilliant creativity and power of your many many words. Thanks, pals -- it's been Real.
