I am so much better at what I do now that I've stopped trying to do everything all at once. I've said for years that <em> if you think you can do more than is humanly possible then you are a snob, because none of the rest of us humans can . . . </em> and yet, I fell victim to the multitasking beast myself just like rest of us. I'm so much nicer now. Hi Douglas,
