Hi Dylan!

We didn't do name tags at the meeting but if memory serves I take it you
are the twin with the Toni, and way-the-heck too young to have any idea
what that means. I'll explain that if you are interested, let me know if
you are. Hint: 50s *hair* commercial.

The people who spell Theisen "Thiesen" are from a different branch of
the family. It is politically incorrect to mix us up. I think the
"Thiesen" family was associated with the UK somehow (the "i before e"
English spelling rule). Our branch of the family doesn't spell our name
according to the English spelling rule because our name isn't English,
it is German. <g>

But Eric Jahn deserves *far*more*and*better* mention than you gave him.
He has been our meeting organizer for the past umpteen months, ever
since we wore out our welcome at Honeywell. He also manages to get my
wifi working every time, including this time, no matter how I have
screwed it up in the time between meetings. This is not to even mention
all the work he put in getting MEPIS to print for me and my Epson Action
Laser 1000. Far from "stranger and unknown", Eric Jahn is one of our
"stars"!

Regards,

Pete
