PB,
Tied myself in knots trying to write something meaningful and erudite, I know what I want to write but just can't seem to type the right things down, bo*~o#ks will have to suffice. So sad that it has ended this way.
To the rest of the crew, after reading all the posts here, it seems that as our paths have not crossed, it has been my complete loss. Gentleman I salute you all, RIP.
