Hi Terry

>I tell you, if I were Brown, under the weight of all this critcism and invective, I'd be crying all the way to the bank!

Crying!!! Then you might be a very good actor, showing people you are crying, hopping with the joy inside, as you are on the way to the bank again and again *g*

>BTW, I've also read "Digital Fortress" by him, another riveting read

Yeah have read it too.

As an aside do you read old stuff like Perry Mason, I am a die-hard fan, collect his books whenever I see one and I have put in a memo page in my Casio Pocket Viewer with all the names I posses so I don't end up buying duplicates *vbg*
