Geoff, I'm delighted to see that it's still possible for someone to have a good time here.

I wasn't at WP, never had any intention of going and nothing appeared to entice me there. (Anyway, I had another place to be that I couldn't skip.) I think I can speak for the emigrés who were (and weren't) at WP in saying that we are still firm AWAD supporters in spite of everything and we condemn flaming as much as you. We look forward to when we will feel able to return in full force, but I think you know what the obstacle to that is. Meanwhile, there are some of us who look in now and then (mainly to test the waters) and I am encouraged. My best to you, Dr. Bill, and the immovable brigade.
