Well, if you can't both come, how about just sending Sylvia?  :-)

As always, you are too generous.  I remember the jealous looks from us
all when Lee Bell, the lucky bastard, took the prize regulator you
offered at the Coz99NEDfest.  :-)  He's mentioned several times how much
he treasures it.  I assume that a jar of Nitrox-safe Vegemite will
accompany it.  :-)

We'll keep the porch light on for you...it's a long time till June 2002.

Best regards,
Russ
