Hey Guys,
I got a call from NIH. Dennis Drayna called me and basically informed me that I'm one of 21 people having a unique genetic mutational signature that may account for at least one variant (or sub-type) of the stuttering phenomenon. Of interest, the genetic mutation is very similar to that of two fatal childhood diseases, so that was kind of a double-take on their end. They know that 20 of 21 of us are all healthy; it's just that they may not know why. They want me to fly up there for more testing, and I'll accept.
So Tim, if you all want to try and get together--let me know; I'd love to meet your son and read him a book. I know that Bethesda is BFE relative to Woodbridge. Not to mention how baby's can alter travel and time limitations! But I know the city pretty well, and I'm happy to take a train or two. I've yet to schedule the trip until I get back, but email me if you're interested.

I'm not laughing at you--I'm laughing with you. Man did I feel that pain in TK, MD. We had the number of an independent carpenter pretty much by memory. And we also bought a single-priced "we'll fix your HVAC regardless" program just for peace of mind. (And we used it; we got the better end of that deal!)
oops--wrong post!
