Now read this personal note I share with you for its relevance to today’s brief discussion: On the evening of Monday 26th September just past, my Florida-based daughter booked a NY-Florida-NY flight so that I may visit her. You can guess the rest: she had to evacuate her Fort Myers home with urgency – and some fear. I’ll return to this a little later.
