"...Perhaps E-Ritchie ought to look at one of our own list members work..."

I have tried. but links to his site were fruitless. I would love
to see the work of "FELLOW CR LIST MEMBER AND CLASSIC
BICYCLE LOVER" Dennis Young. His posts through the years have
routinely referenced the craftsman's and Japanese sensibility
and approach to 'routine' and 'respect for the work...'. It would
be enlightening, and it would add a much sought/needed intangible
to the day-to-day discussion on this list. Also, he & I both like tofu.
