Still that "special interest" in me and my qualities. And the only one to
be that passionate about what I say. Though as of yet, you haven't debated
any issue with me directly.... just some of my personal "qualities". Shame
really, you seem quite an articulate fellow.

I don't drink tea. You are a little odd though, wouldn't you agree? Is
there anyone else that you're paying close attention too other than JB of

same reasons ;-)
