Dear Joanna and John, I think you will agree we are all concerned about where we come from and where we are going. the descent into mythology, astrology and other passions bears this out. This Genome concept is a genius finding. Like I said before there had to be MORE to chart interpretation than what is being handed to us in bookstores. Please continue with the talks on this. A new day for us all who hear what you are putting in front of us. I especially was thrilled to hear the part where we can become passionate about delving into a person and studying them almost bordering obsession and not worry about that it is a bit askew. Outstanding work. I will pass this on to all I know. One question, how do I go about doing a stare for myself, where do I start? Thank You
