And here too. (I suppose if it can make it chez Alan, it has to go via
hereabouts first.)

I had some clever scheme for working out an "average" for all our
positions
(on the surface of a sphere), and then I lost track of where everyone is.
And fell on my head.

I tried to place Amy and me on the map. I clicked on Not in US, and found
it hadn't heard of "Brampton, Ontario, Canada". Fair enough, I thought, so
I tried "Toronto, Ontario, Canada" and it hadn't heard of that, either.
Apparently there's a Toronto in Ohio, which, last I heard, was in the US.
Ah well.
PS for Anen: spectacular thunderboomers here this afternoon, a welcome
relief from the temperatures of the last few days.
