The Holk, I agree whole heartedly with Babaoriley: Pure GOLD!

"Poet is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity they said.

You won't live long enough to do this twice they meant."

I personally would have to leave the purview of an Extended Care Facility for Geezers in order to celebrate the harvest from POET Technologies were I forced to "live long enough to do this twice" as The Holk suggested.  I would, in that scenario, be too old to chase the nurses and ill equipped to proceed should Providence be so kind as to trip one or two of them long enough for me to propel my walker fast enough to capture more than idle conversation with her as she momentarily lost the advantage of a rapid retreat from this Geezer.  

Truer words were never said as those of "The Holk" and I suspect there are others out there on this forum who share my own perception of Holk's prognostication and must have thought to themselves, as I did:  "I would never live long enough to do this twice" again, unless by staying vertical for a second session of this POET Journey I survived long enough for entry into the book, The Guinness Book of World Records (Category:  Longest Living White Guy in the Current Era).

Thanks for that perceptive statement, The Holk.  There is no Second Time Around for this POET Investor.

PS: Not saying just how old, but it has become somewhat of a nuisance to have to notify the Fire Department ahead of time, giving them a "Heads Up", just because of such a little thing as lighting the candles on my birthday cake.
