Just a solid....wow.

Please don't for a second think that I might not be interested in her technical writing. Quite the contrary.

Your post ....how do I say this without being melodramatic?...

Put a lump in my throat!

Again, you must be very proud. She sounds like an exceptional young woman.

I know for a fact I missed my calling. I attribute that to the understanding that I found mathematics difficult. I should have applied myself because if I had, I would be working for Boeing or similar on big things that leave the atmosphere.

That's what I wanted to do when I was in High School.

I also wanted to get high!

One won out over the other.

But I don't have too many regrets.

People like your daughter give me hope for this country. I have two Nephews of a similar vein.
