Sorry for that impression - NEVER my intent.
i just cannot believe it has been so long w/o contact. We never went more than a couple of hours without a call "just to say hello", whikle we were at work, etc. 6 motnhs, never in a million years would i have imagined this. Guess I just don;t matter. I know nothing of his life, even where he lives - and apparently, that suits him just fine.
