Post by: deano on September 03, 2007, 21:55:09 pm Ivan, I/we don't really know who to thank for that honor, quite a surprise. This is so special that I have decided to jump aboard an American Airlines 777 this Wednesday, and pick up the award in person. Of course, thanks for giving me your credit card number years ago, I will enjoy first class service all the way to Heathrow, on your behalf. Can you give us more details about the award? See you on Thursday. deano
