My wife is a classical pianist and practices for an hour or more each day. I sometimes request that she play certain favorites of mine. During the summer time in the evening our neighbors make it a point to stroll past our house they can hear her play.

AS far as reading is concerned I seldom read for pleasure. I get Nature and Science every week reading them take time. I also get EOS (a Geophisical Newspaper), Scientific American and a few others I don't remember. I just finished Al Gore's An Uncertain Truth which I thought was pretty bad. I am now reading Bjorn Longborg's Cool It but am not very far into it. It will turn out to be better than Gore's book. I also read poetry.

All the best,


Lloyd
