Post by KevrobPost by Andrew.I can hear the death knoll sounding in the
not too distant future !
But what you fail to realize John, is that the
death knoll sounding you hear.... is actually
sounding for thee!
We can tell nobody designed spell-checking into Androol.
Thanks. It's knell, not knoll.
I used the misspelled word from John's post.
So it's not entirely my bad.

As you wish John.
According to your words so be it unto you.
We will miss you, John!

**For Whom the Bell Tolls**
by
John Donne
No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.

I suppose a "death knoll" could be a burial mound. :)
Yes, but John said, "I can hear the death knoll sounding"
