Thanks very much for your kind wishes. I too ignored much of my Dad's advice, and did some things in my mis-spent youth that I'm not very proud of today.

I always told both of my sons when they were growing up that while it's true you learn from your mistakes, if you're really smart you learn from other peoples' mistakes. Luckily, they paid attention!
