Okay, so I don't mean to trumpet my own horn too loudly, but I had no doubt that I was not as well received as I originally considered myself. That makes me sad a little because I consider a lot of you to be my virtual friends. Apparently, I do not make that much of an impact but I do try to be nice, with a bit of humor and that will not change as it is part of my DNA. Thanks all that responded to this celebratory thread.
Sorry Corinna, the numbers tell no lies. Germany is out this year, but I will keep '09 in mind.
But Anty, Chiller and all the rest, watch out. Toronto is still on my radar.
