Note: The founder of RRF UK, Mona Mcnee, was a friend of mine. We had exchanged emails until the point she was almost blind and had to read my emails by asking someone to read to her. I then decided to stop writing to her. On a tweet by Geraldine Carter on 15.6.2020 she said that she is an early member of Reading Reform Foundation and had looked at my work years ago.That got me thinking and I remembered writing to Debbie Hepplewhite in late 2018. She had promised to discuss my findings with other members of RRF.Questions that come to my mind now are: i. What was the outcome of the discussion of the members of the RRF...
The Avengers. The Justice League. The X-Men. David Blaine. Our world is full of mythical beings endowed with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. We gaze upon their herculean feats, marvel, and dream. But while we all wish we could fly or lift tons or shoot lasers from our eyes, we’re really not Thor.

How frequently have we heard individuals in books and films and even genuine go on about that one genuine association with their “Soul Mates”? The chance of discovering somebody who has a similar point of view and living appears to be dreamlike.
