Well Bill,
You can collect meteorites and You can get better people skills.
Our president is one of the most people oriented meteorite collectors
that I know. Oh, and it is time for me, and Madam President and all
good little boys and girls to go to bed....Santa will be here soon.
In Europe, I have heard that errant children get sticks in their
stockings instead of lumps of coal...Is that true Bernd?
Very best,
Dave F.
(gone to bed)
