Dohan,
I'll take a look at this tomorrow. I'm off to bed. By the way, I am not a
professor. I'm not even a doctor.

Whereever you go and whatever you do, just remember this. No matter how
many like you, admire you, love you or adore you, the number of people
turning up to your funeral will be largely determined by local weather
conditions.
