I really am sorry, Kevin. 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

Not at all old top. I'm used to have folks get my name wrong (more the
surname that not). 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.
