Dear GUEST JS
Thak you for the valued information. I doubt if any sensible adult who has any real involvement in this sorry case could accuse you of Flaming (ie being insulting to others)
As you rightly say, many people have been dragged through this unending (but not for much longer, hopefully) saga.
It was IMO Nics predicament over the last 20 years that touched people to become in involved. With respect to all the other artists, the very fact that they are all still seemingly OK and performing, would not attract such attention from the public at large. (God Bless you Lal)
Thank you for your interesting contributions to the discussion...(along with many others, Andy, Nerd etc, etc)
To be continued, as they say!
Regards Ralphie
