A Milestone

There is no method of braggin' on one's offspring which may be camouflaged to appear as modest or humble. So please accept my pride with a wink and smile.

Heinz, you are very correct concerning the rigor of my daughter's primary and secondary education. The first eight years we gave our children the necessary tools to think critically. This involved vast quantities of rote memorization and repetition. The remaining years were devoted to subjects requiring quite a bit of independent thinking.

Our other daughter will graduate May 2007. Same degree. Very similar GPA and honors. So, hang on. I'll be back!

Thanks to you men for your words of congratulations.
