Please accept my apologies. The thing is, we've just come back from a short trip to France and the name Provence just came to the fore whilst I was typing that last message. And I really don't know where the name Ken came from, since I know that your name is actually Kevin. Must be this French white wine I am drinking that has addled my brain (and I've had quite a lot of it!). The French, as you probably know, are not the best of friends with the English, and their wine (despite its undeserved reputation) is horrible, a bit like drinking battery acid. I normally much prefer Australian or Californian Chardonnay when I am forced to drink white (as I currently am for health reasons) although my normal tipple (at least as far as wine goes) is a nice strong red Shiraz, preferably of Australian origin (despite the fact that I dislike Australians almost as much as I dislike the French). Anyway, sorry for the mistake. I do hope this won't affect our crusade against the dotnet invaders ;-) Mike

No offense taken. I still have you're back! Speaking of Ken, I spoke to Mr. Halter via email. Seems he had a bit of an event that put him in the hospital. I don't have the particulars just yet. He promised to write back in details at a later date. At least he's alive. :-) - Kev |
