Thank you Claude! I appreciate the faith put in me. You don't need to be worried about that, I am too old to start to act like a selfish child. If some Portuguese step in, I would be glad to resign.
As I stated before, just want to help where it is needed. In fact, it could be sooner than you imagine. Till then, I will be counting on you Fontenelle and I appreciate your attitude too.
