thanks, Angie.  Elmo worked from april 1 of 2001 and he's still working and 
will work up until the moment he gets in the car for the trip to take me to 
Seeing eye and his trip to his retirement family's home close to Allentown, 
pennsylvania.

Yeah, retirement's a very sad time and so I have mixed feelings about it 
all--sadness and excitement.
