I emailed Ric a few months ago. Seems that all his spare time is spent working on his portfolio. Didn't mention illness at all. And I had an email from him a couple weeks ago asking me to forward a scathing message to all my friends regarding, among other things, the congress exempting itself from laws that apply to the rest of us. Nothing new in people being hacked off about that sort of thing so I did as he asked.

Hee hee, yep, law school. I don't know how I got that impression but if you take my deduction as a personal slight, I apologize herewith. Truly, it was an honest error. I somehow got the impression that you were waaay smarter than the average bear, but if being thought of as bright isn't to your liking, welcome to dum-bass land.
