Brink, Charlene, & Cathy

Thanks for the kind B-day words. Brink - yupp - it was Derek.... he's always been good natured about it; I just added a new reply/mini-thread in alt.m.gl on the sound for fun back then that John found; glad u y'all liked it. Oh - and we re-scheduled my birthday to a new less cranky-day when I'm not sick.

I'm glad the pg1/John vs pg2/my reply this thread discontinuity got readable finally. John I think was having fun in for thinking he "found" the origin of the "sound" thread of notoriety with my song mislabeling at the top of.... my own reply; logical mis-assumption. But we averaged probably 2 - 3 replies a week like mine he found for awhile which was merciless on Derek; but he had/has a great sense of humour.

I appreciate the B-day well-wishes vey much. Things are looking up now; I'll be canoeing with my daughter (soon to be married), and out to dinner with Merry, Mamie and I, the whole clan.

thanks Steve
