I hope theos-t doesn't hand out 'medicine'. I have just rejected
my medicine on theos-l and all I want is a pleasant place to talk
to nice people about interesting things. We have a good start,
we both like good ole Henry and GdeP. I have just finished his 3
vol of the Dialogues and I have prosmised myself to read them
again as there is just so much in them that I couldn't fit it all
in this time around.
