Oh, oh,  I am in b-i-g trouble; I have all those problems and never had any 
chemo.  And I know lots of other people too - like my boss. He calls it 
"brain sludge".  Do Math in my head?  Never could; but my Dad could and still 
can - though it might take him a bit longer.  Maybe only the smarter people 
in this world get chemo in the first place?  :)  -chris
