Thanks Dave,

I must admit that I only knew the answer to last week's question because of the discussion the other week which started on the corn fields of America!

The boys were a bit taken aback when they arrived at our new facility and it took a while to get them to stay still long enough for their photos to be taken for the new ID access cards.  They've been busy all week working on conformal coating drawings and decorating the hallway of my house.

We're having a new kitchen delivered in a few weeks so as a reward I've told them they can eat up every bit of food they can find in the current kitchen.  I guess we'll be eating out tonight!

Regards,

James

Dewey retired from Honeywell quite a few months ago.  I have not heard from
him since.  Not sure what he is up to.
