Actually, I do envy the 1st player in one piece we're playing because he has 
shorter rests to count.

Hello Herb,

we have a saying that the island busses at the north coast islands of Germany 
are equipped
with a very wide bench, so everyone can sit besides the driver ......... 
compare with the 1st
horn issue.

Ooops, I know why people want to play 1st, because they have difficulties 
counting rests.
