Let's see if we can fix this up

Michael,

You know this started as a joke. Of course, you do (he said rubbing his hand together evily) know that I'm quite likely to go in any direction. Taking the various suggestions that have been offered today, let's see what (if any) frivolity I can make out of this.:-)

Thanks
