I still sort of wonder. Whil is not a typical American spelling. And I know for a fact Whil (the older one, the one who has ground his cartilage into dust with overrunning <g>), has been a tireless helper of up and comers.

There are many remaining deserving honorees, that's true. You and Andy are among them. Another personal memory: Andy having the publisher send me a copy of 1001 Things. I read substantial stretches of it like it was a novel and sent Andy an appreciative email. Oh, it was nothing, he replied, you could have done the same. I knew that was reflexive English self-effacement but I replied honesty that no, I couldn't have. That book took tons of expertise and tons of hours. I could barely make a list of 1001 VFP topics, much less explain them authoritatively. Great job.
