djhbrown's been doing pretty well recently staying related and relevant to the subject area. This is the first time in awhile he's wandered this far off into his kind of free association space again. I sense he's looking to be useful and taking stabs at being so. Everyone desires to be respected and admired. Some people want it a bit more aggressively than others, and some even more especially as they enter the latter stages of life.
