Hi Daniel,

Pithy ? Uh-uh I was just trying to keep things simple and accurate. And my
french sucks but I had to try ? My buddy just told me I was supposed to say
"de rien" but then he is french and a stickler for details and a standards
conformance weenie like bob :-)

I used to drive when I was living in Missisauga up in Malton but realised
if I move downtown, sell the wheels that is 400 dolars I save in insurance
and transit is most times relaible and on time in the downtown core ( and
cars are for rich folks where as am a poor soul :-) and now a confirmed
pedestrian and TTCarian !

Mint is usually great out of the box, strange hmm ? I know a wee bit about
hardware but I feel Charles who runs the working center up in Kitchner is
your man if you need support.

Pithy ? I wasn't pithy... lol
