Ruprecht, thanks for the thoughts.
Derek, some times you just have a good day at work and want to publicly thank those who contributed to it being a nice day.
Ascend Charlie, big difference between enjoying yourself on a nice day out and thinking it's the best thing since sliced bread.
jj232, you're welcome.
I guess after nearly a decade on PPRUNE I shouldn't be surprised at some of the narrow minded posts that are prevalent from time to time. Ah well, at least I know that I can see the positive side of life and am not so self absorbed or consumed by my own little world that it's possible to actually acknowledge other people's contributions.
