. . . for which he deserves a hearty round of applause. I've had the pleasure of meeting him once many years ago; hopefully again in the near future as the alphabet soup gang gathers steam once more.
John has been an active member of our community since practically the beginning, not to mention having the sweetest avatar ever.

I recall you saying it's your daughter, John; please let her know we're still charmed by her presence so many years later.
