but you should note the conciseness and clarity of my remarks on this thread, in contrast to your own.

Well, Richard, I was all ready to rock 'n' roll but your boy MacFarlane's just pipped me in the sesquipedalian stakes. I thought I was good, but - I managed maybe 30% of that last post before I felt my life just ebbing away. I suspect maybe that was his intention; let's hope so, eh? Either way I am, for once, quite lost for words.

See you on another thread sometime, old timer!

Happy trails, Jack Blandiver.
