Congratulations, Walter.  It's very satifying to see emerging mainstream recognition of something so solid and whose advantages are based in real advantages rather than marketing hype.

I am personally very glad you decided on 'retirement' that you were not after all the daytime TV kind of guy, and I wanted to thank you for everything you have contributed to D and its users.

I wish you a great start to the new year.


Laeeth.

Thank you very much for the kind words!

I am not interested in retirement. I'll be writing code until my mind gives out.

I do enjoy TV a bit much, building a home theater in the basement which is rather nice! It's amazing that an excellent theater can be built for under a grand outlay.
