Vern posted this in October 2002 and I think, in the true spirit of this Forum, it is time for us all to reply. For my part I want to express my hope that Vern has now solved the formatting problem so evident throughout his piece. Apart from that issue I like it very much indeed.
What do the rest of you think?
Sue (twice as clever as Geoffrey, 3.8 times as good looking, 43% less Norwegian)
Ah yes it was because, though I know Vern to be a male name, I did not want to assume and therefore offend as I imagine there are people from lots of countries on this siteSideways wrote:Ciahn, how kind of you to join in. I am pretty sure that Vern is only one person although you pluralise him from the best of motives, I'm sure.
You may be pleased to know that Vern did send me a PM soon after I posted my reply. On that basis I am confident he is alive and well. We promised to keep in touch and in 2033 we are planning to meet.
