Lovely. all of us who can be seen as grandfatherly types can hope for ...well at least me...is that people remember, and enjoy the next, the new. I have remained productive...propers to those who have. I love this list...and wish everyone on it success. I hope we all keep talking through memorial day, rather than wait and lurk. As long as I can breathe I will continue-and hopefully this list will have the backs of those doing work. Cheers. On Nov 27, 2011 3:04 AM, "Robin Pinning" <[email protected]> wrote:
