I think the man is driven half-mad by jealousy over my lovely Martin. The other half must be from something else.

I am all thrilled by having reached final final on me Booque after low these many years of lugging, hauling, carving, trimming, smoothing, pondering, worrying, changing, improving, and lifting it along. Seriously--when was the last time you finished a project of twenty years' duration? The first outline for Cascade was drafted in 1993, IIRC. What a long and curious trip.

The next one will be much more quickly done, thanks to all those eons of hard experience. :D
