Depends on the echo, I think... and who might still be around.  By and
large, I've found Fido people to be at least as helpful, and often more
so, than people in the real world...  Not being much in cyberspace
otherwise, I can't really compare there, although I see a similar
phenomenon occasionally in the genealogy cyberworld... (I get to view
alt.gene periodically...)

That was my introduction to single malts.  And for many years, it seemed
to be about the only one available in the American stores... the
Macallan I was introduced to in a duty-free shop in London, and only
later was able to get it here in the States.  But Glenlivet does still
tend to be the most ubiquitous... ;)
