Mark--

The word "gratitude" is not enough to describe what I--and I'm sure so many
other--have for the service you have provided.  I've been on your "list"
for about 23 of those 30 years and can't count the number of times the
advice and help I have received from other "listers" has made clear the
obscure and/or saved the day.

Thank you--Michael Oritt
