Thanks for your kind remarks, John.  I've been somewhat out of the loop for the last several months mostly due to family obligations and life changes.  FYI, I had a trip planned and paid for to Egypt, landing in Cairo on Feb 12. 2011, which was of course, cancelled.  The trip was a lifetime dream so when the Muslim Brotherhood inspired "revolution" came into full swing, the trip was cancelled, which put me in a huge funk.  I had done so much prep for the trip:  Brushing up on my pitiful Arabic language skills, syncing up all my electronics, studying the cosmos, made a webpage to journal the trip, ooooh, what a bummer but I thank God every day that I wasn't already there when the Brotherhood crap hit the fan.  Keep up the good work, friend.
