New reading glasses (for an old guy)
arrive from the local Kaiser, and a definite welcome improvement... sort of...
good enough to sorta read World Book Encyclopedia (c. 2966) South Dakota maps (will I get through before kicking off? Is it worth it? What would Samuel Beckett have said?), and
ro put up perhaps a bit more efficiently
although possibly a little less expiditiously (suppression of staves in a new edition a bit of a stretch)
