Author How Old is Sam Sloan?

From reading your various posts, I get the impression that many of the
regulars here are over 60 years old.

It is a shame that you folks have so much venom for each other. Soon there
are some of you who are bound to pass on, and you have lived your lives
hating each other, Sam Sloon, etc.

Very sad that after a life-time knowing each other, none of you can be
friends.

Usenet is full of hate-mailers. Sam Sloan is not one of them.

I am a usenet friend of Sam Sloan although we disagree e.g. on Fischer.

Today is the probable birthday of John Chapman (1774-1845) America's
unofficial patron of apple orchardists, better known as Johnny Appleseed.

In 1846 Nathaniel Hawthorne wistfully reflected on the Chapman legacy in
/Mosses from an Old Manse/:-

"What is more melancholy than the old apple trees that linger about the
spot where once stood a homestead, but where there is now only a ruined
chimney rising out of a grassy and weed-covered cellar? They offer their
fruit to every wayfarer -- apples that are bitter-sweet with the moral of
time's vicissitude."

What is left to chance is bitter-sweet, indeed.
