2. Hey Will, sorry for the lengthy delay in responding but I’ve not had a computer for a while and only just got my new one up and running (expect a review of Windows Vista in a few weeks once I’ve gotten used to it, folks).

   I am indeed the “gruffty” jim of yore. Though traditionally there’s only the one ‘f’ in grufty. Only one effin’ grufty, geddit?

   I’ll be dropping the boy Mahalia a line over the next couple of days… gotta catch up on all my emailing and I’ll let him know you were asking after him (he tends to pop in here on occasion, so he may well read your message now that he’s returned from the Climate Camp).

   Take care of yourself.
