Well spoken, Jeff; there's nothing at all adversarial in what you said.
Everyone who makes mousetraps believes that theirs is better, while at the
same time allowing that there is room for other mousetraps in certain
"niche" markets. (Where "niche" is defined as "the markets I don't play
in".)
It's good to hear from you again.

Thanks, Alan, I appreciate that. It's nice to hear from you as well.
When I was driving home from Ithaca on Friday I thought for a mad moment
of dropping in on the Endicott labs, but it was late-ish Friday and
everyone sensible would have gone home. Were you there when I brought 5
dozen bagels from NYC? (For those who don't know: IBM's Endicott labs
are in New York's "Southern Tier" - misnamed for those of us further
south. Rich in a local food item called "spiedies", but sadly lacking in
authentic bagels :-) )
regards, Jeff
