As promised, a month ago, I'm now leaving TechNet with thanks for many years of erudition from you experts. In particular, I thank those who replied to my previous post.
I wish TechNet a long continuation.
Best regards to you all,
Brian

Over the many years, I've made many friends (and probably foes!) in the IPC, some by personal contact, some on this forum. I'm now 86 and, honestly, am past it; enormous strides have been made in our technology since I 'retired' 21 years ago, plus my brain is retiring faster than I would like. I've therefore decided to close this account with the IPC at the end of the month but not without a big thank you for many years of information and enjoyment, hoping I haven't been totally useless, either!
As a final tribute to the efforts of Doug and David, I'm announcing the discovery of a new half-element, brianium. On the periodic table it is half-way between barium and hafnium and its main characteristic is that its electrons orbit at half the usual speed relative to the temperature.
It can be found native only on the surface of an outcrop of pillow lava around the sleepy village of Mosfiloti, Cyprus (incidentally where the cousins Clumpy and Kloumpios first met). This village is named after the mosfilo, the berry of a white hawthorn, which makes a very sticky jam and legend has it that the slow orbit rate of brianium may be due to the viscosity of the jam. It is also possible that Kloumpios' embonpoint is due to an over-consumption of mosfilo jam when he was a kid. The slow electron orbit of the element results in the density of the element being twice as great as may be expected, explaining why some of the inhabitants of the village are also dense.
Farewell,
Brian
