Me!? If I recall, it was Terry yet again. I did him a couple of solids so I don't think I'm in the doghouse with him. Might be, but I can't imagine why.

Maybe the "Wilde" one corrupted him!  :o

Eek! I believe Prokop to be incorruptible personally. Has a lot to do with his life as a child in the former Eastern bloc. Too principled for temptation. Let's just hope he's well and has been very busy.




agree with that assessment Cal, I've had a couple dealings with him and find him to be a man of high standards...Larry
