Now if Lon were to post a summary here that would be very cool.

Lon Binder wrote:Thanks Stuart. I am not sure why people get in such a hub-bub. I write a blog and often do research to get people's insight. Seems like the point of the internet is to link to content, rather than copy and paste it all over the place. Oh well. Anyway, I really appreciate your feedback!

I wasn't in a hub-bub, whatever that is.

I reserve debate for those familiar with English and with hyper-linking... the basic structure of the Internet, and moreso, those who are not (for whatever reason) so diametrically opposed to blogging.

p.s. Robin, I apologize for causing Hoke to be upset.

Just for fun I give you some figures : I have computed what I have drunk in 2007, and the total is nearly 1000 wines that I have shared with people, and I have seen that these wines were from 100 different years.

I am still here. The original post was a breach in etiquette. Hoke tried to straighten him out. His response was less than contrite. I wish the poster would see the error of his ways and stay with us. In the meantime......
