This is the first time I'll NOT be taking a laptop on vacation, so I'll be out of touch for that period...unless I find an Internet cafe in the area. During the work week, I'll have someone watching for new Discussion Board account requests, but expect a day or two delay on getting your account confirmation. If you need a sysop's attention on the weekend...sorry, you'll have to wait until Monday for help. BTW, if there are any ICW members from Italy who want to meet up, drop me an email. Even if we can't meet up, maybe you'll have some suggestions for good eating and music. I'll be flying into Rome and immediately driving to Tuscany for several days. Then we're heading back to Rome for parts of two days, before leaving.

I hooked up with Petruz and although we won't be able to meet up in Rome, he did give me lots of pointers to stuff to do, places for music and even some music stores. Thanks, Petruz!
