For the past 6 months Joerg= =20 has been a decent helpful member around here. He answers up every time his= =20 code is involved, doesn't rise to the bait with the occasional dumb user=20 question and is mostly your typical geek with straight answers - with a bit= =20 of slack cut because he's not native English speaking. It wasn't always like that, but I think we should acknowledge things that=20 change for the better. =2D-=20 alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
