I am replying to the list because more than one of you send me the first five days THANK YOU! However you, David. were the first to do so. I appreciate all your kindness and wonder why we couldn't have the whole story on the list just as it occurs. Georgs Kolesnikovs is an accomplished and quite humorous writer. His reports are not excessive in length and we use up a lot more bandwidth for a lot less meaningful transmissions. So, why not post Georgs travellog for all of us right here on the list? Thanks in advance George Geist of Scaramouche (building his winter cover in Lake Ontario)
