More on Fiona

Our friend the artist Ian Fancey in Nova Scotia helped us name Fiona.  We 
wanted a name that sounded a bit like a Siamese cat meow.  Fiona did the
trick.  She was such a beautiful, kind, intelligent cat.  Yes we are sad.
And a very rapid death of someone you love teaches you that you should
appreciate each moment.

Meanwhile the wars continue -- defining the cruelty and stupidity of our
world leaders, and the military -- killing children lining up for food. 
Fiona is just another reason to be sad.

Have a appreciating that you're alive day!
