[-empyre-] Introducing John Cayley and Penny Florence

[Penny Florence]

Thanks, Renate, Just to say I'm here and have been watching/reading with
interest. We fall victim to time zones - it's 11.15 PM here in LA, so I
can't say much now. But I will be up early - so watch this space about 7
hours hence.
Penny
