When Credit is Due

Hello Everyone,
As we do seemingly move into a more objective area of dealing with and
training for automation, I'd like to take a minute to give credit where it's
due. I think we all owe a lot to Brian for his original "technology" post.
It's easy to forget that only just a week or so ago, there were a lot more
lurkers than writers on this Net. Now, whenever I start to check my mail I
get that same feeling I have when playing in traffic <gg>.

Because we're all researchers to some degree, I'd like to understand what
happened. I offer that Brian unwittingly started this entire affair because:
(1) There's just something in his "tone of voice" that inspires people to
reach for their keyboards, or
(2) He forgot to put even one smiley icon ;-) in his message.

While we thank you, Brian (big grins all around), we must remember to remain
vigilant. He could have an encore ;-).
