Hi. My name is Cynthia Richards. I am 43 years old and happily married for 7 years.  I got married while attending Bryn Mawr College and had a couple students as my bridesmaids.  I was in the Navy for eight years, serving as a Quartermaster (navigation).  I lived in Iceland, Puerto Rico, Crete, Italy and worked under the Secretary of the Navy in Washington, DC.  I grew-up in Minnesota and have been living in Philadelphia for over ten years.  My husband and I live in Chestnut Hill, PA.  I am an English major and plan to graduate in the spring of 2009.  Following graduation, my husband David and I are adopting twin girls from China under the age of 12 months.  We are just waiting for our travel date to pick them up.  We have no other children and cannot wait to adopt these two girls.  I have always been interested in science and english.  My major is english and I have taken 10 courses in english at Bryn Mawr.  I invented a new insulin pump for diabetics (I am a diabetic on an insulin pump)-even though it was initially rejected from the US Patent and Trademark office in Washington DC, I can produce it as an innovation with FDA approval. We have a Labradoodle named Henry that is 10 months old.  He loves his toys the most, next to his parents. We love him too. I really look forward to this course because of my varied experiences and interests.

 Questions:

1.  How does evolution and english come together?

2.  How does letters to one another become books so quickly?

3.  How does the evolution of the animal correlate to the evolution of the letter?
