Thanks for the kind words Tante.  Really appreciated.   A minority of my crypto has been stolen but I had to work hard to buy it so I'm pretty angry.  I don't feel violated.  As I said, I hope who stole it needs it more than me.

I don't want to speculate too much but the two wallets  that were compromised had the same passphrase.  Thats the only commonality.  The other (n) wallets on my PC have been running and were uncompromised.  The only thing that is troubling me is that one was BTC core on my PC and the other Darkcoin QT on my mac.  There is an active fileshare between the two.
