Peter and I have exchanged 3 emails. Could you mark down in your calendar to email Peter early in May? By then he'll have read the book. (The first few chapters are enough, but once Peter starts I just know he'll read the whole book.) Email him in May, and ask him if I did enlighten him as to how that Ruth card isn't authentic. Ask him if he feels like he learned anything from me, and the book.
If, after reading the book and exchanging emails with me, then if Peter thinks my response up there was crap circumlocution, then I'll apologize right here, to both you and Peter. I'll even bump it every few hours. But if Peter tells you that he's now a bit better able to discern cards for himself, then either read the book and join us, or hush up, please sir.
I recall when I was in graduate school, and decided to quit on the masters and go to law school instead. I told Dad what I was doing. He asked me how old I'd be when I graduated law school, I thought and told him, 32. He said nothing, as if his point was made that I was too old to go to law school. I then told Dad I'd be 32 then whether I went to law school or not. Later in life he told me that was the first sensible thing I'd said to him in years. A fellow's never to old to learn. If only he's willing.
