Peace Mervyn, (and Ruth too).

I would never classify your good self, Mervyn, along side Dumain.  Not

Fellow list members.  


we are doing very well at the moment.  I am poised to get stuck into the
diffraction of the dialectic. (lucky me) 

If my post raises half as much discussion as Colin's  did I will be pleased.

Gary
