Dear Gregory:

You are welcome and thank you for your kind words. Capt. Maranga took you under his wings, literally and figuratively. He took you to his born-again church as well. What a blessing he has been in your life!

In regard to my email address: seven members over the years requested my email address and I went through the trouble of exchanging email addresses with these lovely members. My experience with all seven was that the communication on tiny buddha was the best, but the email communication turned out to not work for me. Having finally learned from my experience, my answer is: no, better we continue to communicate here. It will be better this way.
