I don't think our dear old friend responds to anything electric unless it contains tubes. Actually he mentioned seeing some links of this place you sent him and I know he's been to Bill Nelson's site, so he's just weak with the reply. Did the same thing to me.

I married relatively late, at age 38. My wife's name is Allison and we have two children, Kyle 7 and Sophie 4. Presently I am a clinician and teach medical students how to examine childrens' eyes at Johns Hopkins Hospital in East Baltimore. I married a Baltimore girl that I met when I lived in Chicago, and now we live in Baltimore, MD
