Ah yes, I recall. But actually it was Geo whose invitation I responded to.
He may now regret that.  In any case, I had been lurking here for
a long time before all that, with Judy sometimes urging me to start

forums, it seemed the right
time to start posting here. But yes, you did play a part in that and thus
deserve some of the blame.
