[Magdalen] (Re-)Introduction

[Allan Carr]

Well, I certainly remember you from your recent short re-appearance at
StSams as well as from earlier times. I joined the old ANGLICAN list in
late 1995 and joined this list at some time near its beginning. I'm not
sure how many of us persist in remaining members of both lists, but I'm one
of them.
At this point, I'm 84 years old having survived an aneurism two years ago
that the surgeon gave me a 5% chance of surviving. I still live in my house
of 40 years in Southern California with my 83 year old wife who has
Alzheimer's. I have peripheral neuropathy but she still helps me get around.
