Hiya, Merle,

Alan is jake with me.  He's just not a Zen guy, though he may have learned and 
mimicked a lot of the talk.

Put any question you like, or mention anything that Watts has settled for you, 
or assured you of, Merle.  You have my attention.  I like our old Uncle Alan 
very much.

I have not looked at his video; I've heard all the radio airings of Watts' 
audio-taped performances in my time.

What's on your mind that you wanted to settle?

G'day,

--Joe

PS  Bird was not a kookaburra?  "Kookaburra" was one of the first simple pieces 
I played on Cello, as a learning exercise (all in first-position, at the time).
