Alex,
I have found that you are sometimes hard to get a hold of also, and sort of crusty when gotton ahold of. Very "curmudgeon" like, but in a good way.
Would it be possible to meet for lunch some time next week when I am in Ottawa?
The wife and I and Perry Kitson are at Notre Dame High School on Broadview Thursday and Friday, then near Minto Bridge on Saturday, followed by a parade downtown on Sunday.
Perhaps we could find a nice place to get a snack.
This outing would help my Carrier brake adjusting - I put on new shoes 3 years ago when I rebuilt mine, and have only 35 miles since. The manual says to adjust again after 50!
See you in Ottawa.
Stewart
