[Groop]Got my button too!

[Chris Schechner]

Philippe,

First of all, congratulations on your marriage! I wish you two many 
years of happiness together.

Second, what a great surprise! You're right. This group is wonderful, 
and Gary plays a LARGE part in that wonderfulness. Way to go, Gary!

Chris

>OK, I *was* dumb (without voice) from emotion when I opened the enveloppe:

>"Congratulations Philippe & Estelle", along with a Sergio drawing

>Gary, you really are a gem! I guess that's the reason why Becky (aka
