Everything. My whole time there was a voyage of discovering human possibilities. Human limitations only later became apparent. Ed prof Phil Rothman warned us, saying that new teach- ers would lose most of their ideal- ism within two years.That’s impossi- ble, I thought, but he was right—the real world has that effect. I took a lesson from imaginative Antiochians who went “own plans” on their co- op jobs. I’ve gone “own plans” for twenty-five or so years now and can apply my ideals afresh with each new project. Coffee in the park: When home I bike every chance I get. When it rains I’ll go for a run instead. With my wife, Lynn Rosen, on a Quebec train. I had long hair for 20 years or so. Isaac (Harry Sobol) and I became reacquainted after maybe 40 years. When we left Yellow Springs we traded cars because we hadn’t been able to sell them. I got the Porsche and he got the VW van. Not all ideas work out well but it was fun. Nap time with my granddog. Granddogs have taught me a lot about how to be.
