Will do!  

And, of course, litter box duty is 
a necessity  that must fall to someone.

Btw, do you know if this attributed Twain  quote is accurate?:  
"Politicians and diapers must be changed  frequently.  And for the
same reason."

Saw it recently, and  laughed, but wondered about the authenticity.
"Break a leg" in May.
 
Best regards,

Thanks. Steve took a balanced  approach to the story and told it well. My 
only complaint is that the  expression on my face is the same one I wear 
when 
changing our cat's litter  box, but I supplied the photo and can't whine 
about that.

I'll be in  Hartford in May to deliver a chat on this topic, along with 
some 
further  evidence I've uncovered since publication of the original article. 
My hope  is that when the Mark Twain Journal has benefited as much as it 
possibly can  from the publicity, that my original article can be posted 
online.

I  have two more "bombshells" I plan to deliver this year, so stay  tuned.
