Very well-put, Steve.  I have a day job, music has become my second job, 
and
now I draw for relaxation.  I love both my jobs but there are limits to how
much I can work until my brain becomes mush.  I also now spend more time 
with
my real-world friends in non-job-related situations.

Having said that, LD is a wonderful resource that's taught me a lot in the 
few
months I've been on it.  I've been privileged to meet some great and 
talented
people online who I hope to meet someday face-to-face.  LD is one of the 
best
mailing lists I've ever subscribed to.

Peace,
Kevin
