For clarification. What I sent was a 2KB message containing
a WEB address for the article. The article was long and I am
conscious that participants on other mailing lists that I
subscribe to pay by the minute for email. My intention was
to supply the reference not the article.
I apologize to those in the MAC world. I did not realize
what happens.

    To live in this world
    You must be able
    to do three things:
    to love what is mortal;
    to hold it against your bones
    knowing your own life depends upon it;
    and, when the time comes to let it go,
    to let it go.
                         Mary Oliver
