Hi Bernie

I agree. If you are happy to go down that line, John, I am sure a lot of 
people would appreciate it. When you made the original offer, I was wondering 
if it would be worth it just for BradLUG, but if it were practical to make the 
offer more widely available to non-commercial groups for the next three 
months, say, that might also help a lot of people to become familiar with it.
