>>A big thank you to everyone, including those who have contacted me by email. It's funny because my friend Marie used to give me a hard time about being a "blabbermouth" online. "You tell everyone this, that, and the other. Those aren't your friends, Mikey, they're acquaintances. It isn't real. It's just chat." I could never convince her that the friendships are indeed real. This is living proof.

And in face-to-audience setup, as Eddie Izzard summed it up, "it's 70% how you look, 20% how you sound and 10% what you say".
