My wife likes that I have these various time consumptions. It means there's we're stopping halfway along my planned 4 children. ;) Shame about Ant. I reckon he should at least pay us a visit now and then. If D becomes a serious commercial language in the next two years, which seems eminently possible (especially if we can get some academic institutions interested), then it'll be very good for all concerned to have been involved at this stage, as we'll be the gurus.

Of course, Ant will be sorely missed. :-( But he's more the man for making family the priority over d. As special as d is, it sure isn't worth the risk of losing family. It's easy to overlook what counts in this world. I've seen plenty of death and broken hearts through the years on my job as a paramedic. It happens over and over and over again. It's amazing how we human beings don't see what counts until it's too late (or try to ignore it lest it pain us). It's been a slap in the face for me a few times and certainly keeps me thinking. So it's refreshing to see someone that cares enough. I'll stop philosophising. Sorry! Take it easy, Ant. It could happen to any one of us in one way or another. Best wishes, John
