Wow! that's really something,...makes me realise once again how the internet eats a nice big hole in those distances,..I feel like you're all next door! Thanks for taking the time out to do some measurements! I saw a wristwatch with a built in GPS system the other day,...I really like the sound of this technology,....but it cost a not-so-small fortune. Hey BTW John,...do you know anything about Sophia Antipolis, the "telecom valley" on the riviera? I have my beady eye on it as a possible working destination,....... Cheers!

So, the question of the day is... Kuinka vanha olet? (at least it is according to my handy Finnish phrase book...) Cheers - hope you had a great day!!! - - Melissa, listening to Gerry Rafferty's "City To City", which I still think is one of the best albums ever.

What brings me to this realization: I'm making a theatrical mask, and I thought I'd sit & work on it with the tv on, and Live Wirel;ess playing. I've never just listened without also watching it. Innocent enough, or so I thought... I now know that 'just' listening is an entirely different experienc3e, & puts this performance in a strange new realm somehow. Though I love this film in every respect of course, visuals & all, it took me by surprise how powerful the music is alone. His version of Jungle Line, tres forceful!
