Sunday March 1, 2015 F: 7 a.m. Late start, this morning, Miss Rita. The dog ate my alarm clock. Actually, I was pleasantly surprised to sleep as late as I did. Continue with the questions? Something to say first? Your move. R: You may go to the next question on the list. [Jim Austin’s question:…

Monday March 2, 2015 F: 6:30 a.m. Good morning, Miss Rita. Were you the one who put the idea into my mind last night that I should contact my old friend David, dead 45 years ago today? R: There is no real use pinpointing the supposed source of an idea. Ideas are not property, and…

Tuesday March 3, 2015 F: 4 a.m., nearly. Miss Rita, you awake? Shall we begin? R: Let’s continue as we have begun. We can get to anything we need to get to, answering questions. [Lynn’s question: “The message makes sense when I apply it to myself, but I lose clarity when I try to apply…

Wednesday, March 4, 2015 F: 5:10 a.m. A little tired, this morning. Onward? R: There isn’t any rush. Enjoy your coffee, come to this a little more gradually. F: Yes, I guess I was startled when I woke up to find it five a.m. instead of the 2:30 or so that I thought it was.…

Thursday March 5, 2015 F: 4:30 a.m. Morning, Miss Rita. Here we go again. “Web to weave and corn to grind.” And why I woke up with that quote from Emerson, I have no idea. At any rate, let’s go.

Friday March 6, 2015 F: 12:30 a.m. I might as well talk to Rita now, rather than try to go to sleep again. That a good idea, Miss Rita? R: No harm in trying. F: Okay, let’s go. [From Ann: “I wondered if it would be possible to ask Rita some questions about wellness and…

Saturday March 7, 2015 F: 7 a.m. Feels pretty leisurely, not waking up till nearly seven. Miss Rita, ready to go? R: Certainly. It isn’t as though doing any one thing prevents us from also doing another. F: Not news to me, of course, but maybe sometime we can go into that for those who…

Sunday March 8, 2015 F: 4:45 a.m. EDT. Miss Rita, shall we tackle Bob’s questions? R: Yes, then perhaps yours, if we have time and you focus your generalized question so that we may find a specific angle of approach, for of course it is a huge subject. F: Very well, here are Bob’s. [Bob…

Monday March 9, 2015 F: (2:30 a.m. EDT) So, Miss Rita, we have another question queued up, but I think I want to ask you something instead. And, just as when you and I used to be talking with “the guys,” I can’t help wondering how much is my idea and how much is planted.…
