Adam should be given credit for catalysing debates and threads that 
along the way in the thrusting and parrying enlighten  ignoramuses such 
as myself.  Mostly it just indicates the depth of my ignorance.  In your 
arguments with Adams you often do a wonderful educating job for some of 
us - knowing what you don't know (and probably will never understand) is 
a sort of wisdom, isn't it?

I would be sorry to see him drop his technical sallies from Link; but 
not his personal hassles with society.
