Thanks, JohnK, and everyone else for the birthday greetings. Up in Toronto for a few days. Had huge lobsters and fine wine for an excellent B-day dinner with family and two dogs (English Bulldog and Shar-pei).

Also exchanged greetings with a first cousin who has the same birthdate and former colleague and editor Ian G. Masters(AudioScene Canada, etc.), with the same birthdate. Ian is exactly three years younger, hence he is Ian the Younger -- I'm Alan the Elder.

Cheers,
Alan
