Belated, I can believe, as I lack a calender and am genetically predisposed to not know what day it is. Ignorance of the metric system, such as relating cm to inches, ("It'll never catch on...tis only a fad."), that too may be true. But *writing* a letter...now that surely is the stuff of dreams, not that I cannot 'write,' but that my handwriting is not so much 'atrocious' but more 'very specific to the writer's needs.'
