Geoff, great to hear from you. Vacation was a week-long cruise in the Caribbean. It was a great trip! Glad to hear things are warming up in Chicago. Things are warming up here as well. Loved your stories about your train trip out west. Sounded like a blast!

Geoff, Thanks for your kind words. Kind of feeling a little beat up right now. But I really think that once people play around with the features and get used to them that they will warm up to them.
