Well, there's the answer to my casual question of a few months ago about 
where I'd get a free, adequate Daisy reader if I felt I needed one for 
anything. And FS's free version that's been limited to reading FS help 
files until now is the only one I've ever taken the time to learn how to 
operated, and it seems perfectly adequate to me.

Just waiting long enough turns out to have  been the right strategy, this 
time. Wish it were always so and I wouldn't have missed out on a number of 
things in life. But so it  goes, to cop a Billy Pilgrim from Slaughterhouse 
five.
