I must have missed this letter back in 2006.  I took a break  from online message boards and the Moodies in general from 2002- 2010, raising children and getting a child through college.    It was wonderful to read it almost 9 years later!  I really enjoyed reading how he created "The Actor".  The stories come alive behind the music.  He articulated himself so well in this letter.  Thanks for sharing this again.
