Hi Walt,
I have to say that I really appreciate your expertise in your
contributions to this group. In fact I learnt a lot from you. It is very
good to hear an opinion from someone who really knows what he is talking
about. Information of the kind you give and also the kind way you give
them are the reason why naturerecordists is my favourite group. You and
all the others give me a lot of inspiration.
So thank you!!!
I hope to keep on hearing from you.
