Of course, I’d like a 25th anniversary button, if they have it, but mostly, I’d like you to thank Sergio for me for all the joy he’s brought me (Mark, the same goes to you, but you can actually read it here! Thank you for the joy and for the extra mile you’ve gone for the groop and for me personally.) and if Carolyn is there, please give her a hug for me for her dad’s influence in my life and for hers as well, by helping continue his legacy. That’s all I want. Thanks, Gary, for being such a Groo-head and for all you do for this groop.<BR>
