So happy your wonderful find has a Silver attached, Emile! Congratulations and all the best in the upcoming round! (PS - I'm very far behind in visiting my BP friends but hope to get back on track soon - my Better Half surprised everyone with the news he's ready to retire NOW and not wait until April 2012 as we had planned...so we are in the massive bureaucratic throes of Social Security, Medicare, etc., etc...and Emile! The Best News??? We're staying in Austin!!!!!!!) #9813645
