Dear Karl,

>> Thanks for forwarding this wonderful essay on the utilities and
pleasures of bourbon. Although I read it some years ago, I savored it
once again on my screen upon receipt. <<

I'll be glad when the Lenten fast is over and I can do more than read what Walker Percy has to say in praise of bourbon.

>> Question: I'm new to this kind of discussion group (not my normal sort
of past-time; but I'm a die-hard devotee of Percy). What are the
protocols and expectations about responding and submitting? <<

When it's bubbling (activity comes and goes), about the only constant is that the discussion has something to with WP.

>> If you haven't seen it, you might be interested in a book I came across
in a used book store: a collection of letters between Shelby Foote and
Percy. Great read. Seen it? <<

It's a wonderful book.
