 Yes, and I appreciate how you’ve kept us up to date over the years. Someone wrote in the condolences section following Steve’s obituary that they’d had lost a friend they’d never met.

I owe you a thanks Charlie. You introduced me to the series, as you probably have many other fortunate readers, and it’s turned out to be a wonderful gift.
