Thanks Marsha.<br>
Hmm. I never thought of that side. (Ron, I got your 'legal' point now. You
should have been blunter. Guessing is not my strongest suit.)<br>
Of course I meant long-standing relations that have been existing for years and
mostly behind the scenes, like, say, mine with Ron and Mark Dreyer (easy,
Mandefu--I am not sending yet anyone your way :)).<br>
And of course I never suggested saddling Ron with this.<br>
But...<br>
I have a dream (c) MLKJ.<br>

Vlad!<br>
<br>
I agree that Marsha made a good and timely point.<br>
<br>
Also, I was fully aware that you didn‘t think of that angle and that you weren‘t
implying it was to be my job.<br>
<br>
Yes, I should have been more blunt.</p>

with a guy called <i>Vlad</i>, with a certain college-day nickname?! Puh-leaze!<br>
<br>
How‘s that for blunt? ;-)<br>
<br>
There's nothing wrong with dreaming. In fact, were would we be without it?</span></p>
