Welcome, Amanda. Looking forward to your posts. Hope you'll do one on the crown, that form you exemplified so beautifully when you worked with Paul and after. Though I am out of town for the long weekend and must miss KGB tomorrow night, I am sure you and Jennifer will knock 'em dead and I hope to be seeing you somewhere sometime soon.
