BelArgUSA ........ we have similar tastes ! I kept my Glycine on GMT ( UTC is a French aberration ) and in later years, after retirement, used the sliderule to prove that the Supermarket were screwing me by charging more for the 'Large Economy' pack of soap powder than 2 regular packs !
Enjoy retirement - but don't, it sucks ! Poling a 747 around the World had to be the best job of all - except for the hassles with hotel room clerks ( and Mini-bar checkers when you are trying to sleep during the day ! )
