Hi there! How's the career going? Sounds like lots of overtime. |

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool. I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss! - Cecil Lewis | |

Hey. Long hours lately, yes. Antitrust litigation, though. Interesting stuff, smart people. No petty red/car blue/car litgiation. Leave for Disney in the morning so I need to get an expert report done before I go. I was so ready to leave four hours ago. How are you, Mik, RR?? |

Working on a project right now re: nationalized single-payer healthcare implementation in the US. Disappointment with the current system as well as with the rollout of the ACA has increased interest in other possibly better alternatives. Doing a lot of traveling talking with experts and bureaucrats in the US and Canada… very interesting. Oh, and following the plan of the book you recommended: "Eat to Live". I felt I was eating unhealthily on the road, with way too much protein, and needed to change my ways. So far, so good. |

Cool, RR. When you say project, you mean research? Glad you're liking Eat to Live. I feel like it set a barometer for me. |

I need to pick up that book. I am working on EHRs and various pathology system conversions. 2013 has been a good year in my business and 2014 should be a banner year. At 58 I could use a few banner years. |

Yep, research. Just the facts, no political agenda. I didn't have a lot of weight to lose, despite my crappy diet, but have lost 5 kilos on the vegan diet without even trying, and without starving myself. Disney sounds nice! Hope you and the family have a great time. |

Good to hear, Mik. Disney should be fun--we go for a long weekend every other year with my parents and my family. You all are always up to something interesting. I post here less often because I work more. Miss everyone. |

Disney is always great fun - where are you staying? We like the WIlderness Lodge best of the few we have stayed in. |
