How terrific to be productive in a way that matters right up to the end. Maybe there is something about creating for the young that lengthens ability. It's still tragic when people leave too early, like your friend Peter. I think of your loss every time I go to check the countdown. I hope you are well. Thank you for providing us with this invaluable resource. What I notice, which is kind of lovely, is how many of these legends worked right up to their death, most with works coming out posthumously.
