I feel compelled to give credit where credit is due. Mike Wohlrab told me about the LogMeIn Ignition feature a while ago. I failed to respond in as an excited manner as I ought to have. So for me to say today how great it sounds when another esteemed ProFoxer shared that Ignition info with all of us is perhaps an unintended back-handed slap against Michael Wohlrab. That was not the intent. It was more of a statement of affirmation I made today about how cool that feature is, but I did not pay tribute to Michael for his having told me first.
Michael, can you ever forgive me? heh-heh... FWIW, this is not the first time he has mentioned something to me, and only later did I recognize the importance of his earlier comment. I guess it pays to listen to the youth of our legion (Mike is not yet 18, already graduated high school, and has started college [summer class] one year early. Great kid, excellent intern, good friend and up & coming colleague).
