I'm very glad to hear that.  :-)

I apologize for being mostly incommunicado for quite some time now.
As I mentioned on the ARAnyM list, there have been a lot of things
'in the way', and I'm so far behind on my email now that it's scary.

If anyone has tried to contact me about something, I'd suggest sending
another email (to the address I'm using to post here, for now), since
it is still likely to be a few weeks before I've caught up on all the
accumulated email.

I can imagine that. Perl is often talked about as write-only language.  ;-)
