I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Hopefully the land will go to UNC as it set out in the original will, but
the developers in the Triangle are *so* out of hand that I think we can
assume the worst.

The friendship is what I found to be the most amazing part, and the fact
that neither of them were looking for it, it just happened and changed both
of their lives for the better. Truly amazing and inspiring.
