Well, Jean, I dug out an email I sent to you and your reply from April '98, not sure if it was still in my archives, but I found it. I am so glad you have joined in. Here's the history of my reference to you about Mudcat!:

From - Mon Apr 20 15:56:52 1998

Dear Alice, After much travelling, having hosts of company from England, and many other Interruptions to Living, I've found a minute...looked up the mudcat discussion forum and was so pleased at all the good things you said of me, and was further pleased to read all the discussers of other things, many of those discussers being friends of mine... it looks like getting involved would be either the frying pan, or the fire, and I'll hold my contributions for now, with thanks! Looks most interesting, though, and someday, who knows, I may dive in... Best, Jean

I'm happy to "see" you here, Jean!
