Re: So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish*

Cheryl, I never had much call to use your knowledge, but I know it has been useful to mainframe shops all around the world. I was more than a little pleased to see you were still around the other day. I hope you have plenty of time to enjoy a very well-earned retirement in the best of health. On
