Ruth,
Recently, when I got my laptop computer re-formatted, the techy was rather 
affronted that I wanted him to save a collection of antique and randomly 
unread e-mails from the last ten years of BP.   He, being part of the modern 
instant gratification culture, couldn't understand why anyone would want an 
e-mail from yesterday, and told me so!   I tried to explain that some people 
create a financial retirement fund for their old age.   This folder of 
e-antiques is my plan for mind refreshing, happy-making, reading material 
for those future hours/days when I may linger immobile in a hospital bed. 
I plan to be there chuckling.    They say laughter is good for the heart!
