Dear Phoebe,
You make my day! Actually, it should have been yesterday, but I am
afraid most people did not notice my Aprils fool item.
Once I thought translating my Handbook into English, but other things
gained priority. Especially my textbook I am due to have finished on
July 1st, and about which I was still going to ask you questions - you
are more experienced still.
Kind regards
Ziko
