And from all the Terrans, monkey-burdened Indian-riding strangers, voles, banjo-picking folkies, Tweedledums and Dees, Elders, Gamblers, deckhands, and harum-scarum roughnecks from the wildest corners of the tavern, too! Even if it is a day early!! Thanks for all the first-class fiction, and the even better realities!

HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY!!!

And many years of frabjous returns, too.

Love,

A
