[Xmca-l] Re: My Hometown Minneapolis

Valuable context, Richard. Thank you.

Very sorry for my ignorance, but would you define or explain the "expansive
learning" concept in a sentence or two (or 3)?  You can also call me a lazy

didn't really understand what I read.

Feel free to ignore this : )  But thanks otherwise,

Anthony
