Well, this is an unexpected but wonderful surprise and certainly does much to lift my spirits. Thank you, Nikolai, and thanks to all others who have stopped by to congratulate.
I am not sure I am worthy of the honor this week as my reading has been at the low end these past few days or so, but I value this award as much as any other and particularly appreciate what it honors - reading other's work! That, more than anything else, is the lifeblood of this community. I can only hope to give back at least half as much as it has given me over the years. Thank you once again!
