As someone who has 'attempted' myself to do the same on numerous occasions the need to respond to numerous topics and to add my opinion has been overwhelming when I read some of the utter rubbish posted by fellow SVers...and I include myeslf as a poster of rubbish at times....
I'm sure that the draw of contributing to SVs will prove too strong for John to stay silent for too long.
Even my 'mate' Geek has returned....
Enjoy the break John...but I know you'll be back.....
PS Too many of us take it far too seriously....
