I enjoyed memoir. I consider your father, and thousands of others, as my 'professional ancestor.' I'm an engineer, you see. I look at the world through an engineer's eyes and seek the "how does that work" of everything.

As with your father, none of my offspring have followed a technical path. As with your father, they are doing (not doing?) so with my love and blessing.

What they do have, as I see in your writing that you have, is an appreciation for the father's way of relating to the world.

Yes, the differences do become gradually accepted ... and appreciated.

Thanks for the glimpse of one of my forebarers and his progeny.
