I never saw this thread the first time around, or I'd have added to it at once. Glad it came up again!

Hearty congratulations to Jim for this much-deserved recognition. I can't tell you how many times I have profited by Jim's impeccable scholarship, knowledge and just plain good sense. I have enjoyed his posts for their good humor and endless informativeness. They're a model of what a good Mudcat post ought to be.

Jim, you're an ace. Many thanks!
