Who am I? The youngest son of a youngest son -- my father (JAE) was born in 1901, before radio, before airplanes, while Russia was still a monarchy. My grandfather: born in 1844, before the Indian Mutiny, just after the first Afghan War, before the Paris Commune, before Impressionist painting, before Florida became a state, before "Wuthering Heights" or "Vanity Fair" or "The Origin of Species".
