I was not named after her but my middle name is Ellen, in tribute to my Russian/Jewish great-grandmother, Elke, who came here in 1913.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1990338437877873686.post-477816809684814482016-03-15T19:33:54.453-04:002016-03-15T19:33:54.453-04:00Happy Birthday (a day early) my dear friend!!

Can we recast it as 128+256=2^7+2^8. I prefer to think of myself as good wine, getting better with passage of time. That is also true of some cheeses. But you will have to ask Jeff about that.
