I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse.
I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in
uncorrelated tabulations and then deleting the emails.
(I know this loses interesting correlation data, but if

I will post results Saturday.

distorting effect of the glass. A local builder, Brud Campbell,
with whom I became very friendly, suggested plate glass.
With that installed, I could rest on my bed and watch the
fishing boats out in the bay. The whole expanse of harbor

master's office and the lighthouse as prominent features.
On a clear day I could see the Mountains of Mourne, away
in British occupied Ireland, while, from Howth Head, I
could dimly see the mountains of Wales far across the Irish
Sea.
We bought a second-hand car and often journeyed up
207
into the Dublin Mountains, enjoying the pure air and the
beautiful scenery. On one suc
