Whew, can I get a witness?

I now have different eyeglasses for close-up reading, workstation use,
and distance vision (I guess I should just give up on vanity and pony
up for the trifocals.)

Ditto on the "surrounding onesself with younger people" thing, too,
though I'm damned if I'll acknowledge they're sharper. ;-)  As my
manager always reminds me, I'm very much in the "mentoring" phase of
my career.
