Dear Thorsten, I like to start mornings reading emails like this ! I do not remember seing such and advent calendar before; I am sure it can inspire other teams as well. Out of curiosity, I tried to click on the first of December to see what happens. But December has not started yet ;) Nevertheless, even if it would allow cheaters to inspect the chocolates in advance, I would advocate putting a link to the source somewhere (on the star ?). That would be the cherry on the cake. Have a nice day, -- Charles Plessy Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
