Please let us know if you hear anything, and we will do the same.

well I was IMing Maheen right up until very shortly before he left home and I am pretty sure that at one point he said he was taking his laptop with him to Sri Lanka.
Also at some point I think I noted that he has a hotmail email account posibly maheenwick@hotmail.com so if his Canadian sympatico account is stuffed full with good wishes from his friends, family and army of girlfriends and ex-girlfriends a hotmail account (and I think he confirmed that it had been upgraded to the new 250MB limit) should still be able to accept emails. Maybe he will be able to sign on and read these postings of concern and respond here, but I will try in the morning to send a test email to the hotmail account I just gave.(I think the accurate hotmail addy is on my MSN Messenger's buddy/contact list) but for reasons best known to itself my stupid desktop is playing dummo and refusing to boot up properly so I am using Susan's for this access.
Otherwise he said he'd be back in Toronto on
January 4th so keep your fingers crossed for him
Meanwhile isn't it amazing how quickly the American television newsreaders learnt how to pronounce soo-know-mee!!
