I can get the month, sometimes... but couldn't swear to the date. The exact date isn't important. Other things come to mind and overwhelm those facts. The last thing I focus on when my parents come to mind is a date that happened 38 some odd years ago. I'm able to date it because I remember my son was only a toddler when he passed. Outside of that, it's a blank. -- "Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a man’s mind." - OC Bible 25B.G. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ek8kap93bmk0q5w/D%20U%20N%20E%20Part%20II.jpg?dl=0 Gracie, age 6. https://www.dropbox.com/s/0es3xolxka455iw/BetterThingsToDo.jpg?dl=0
