With the interest in family history increasing in leaps and bounds, my children and grandchildren may possibly also have these textual heirlooms copied electronically, or in another form or forms as yet undeveloped. I hope that they will do the same for their children.My hope is that they will be able to make sense of the literary snowflakes that the blizzard of my haphazard creation wafts their way, and that they will be able to scrape a pathway to some sort of understanding of my world  - as I saw it around me in the second two thirds of the twentieth century and the first third of the twenty-first.  It may help them to understand me, and perhaps make allowances for the way I was as a living, and in many ways perhaps  -  inadequate fatherly entity.
