Ken, as promised I bought this book. I just finished the brain busting chapter 14. I must tell you this is an outstanding read. If it is fiction, the writer competes with Hemingway!
I had to take a time out to get my brain back to a semblance of my reality. Now about to start ch. 15.
I remain, as I do, a bit skeptical, as in agnostic, until further thought, not as a disbeliever using skepticism as a cover for disbelief.
I can hardly take a break from the book, except to clear my head, and grasp for objectivity.
At this point all I can say is THANK YOU. I'll report back following this seven course meal and digesting it.
