He will look well on your work. Although I can't do 1200 each on a

Many consider my work toward ambience to be something less than
specific species and behavior goals. For me I remember what is
missing in my life and look to record the small piece that remains of
it. I remember the sound of dawn in years past.
On a side note:
What I conveyed to my father was less than I felt as well. On the
time I saw him last, there was no time to catch up. I suspect it was
the same for Chris. Peace be with him.
