I just found the newer RFC while googling for "signature separator". Convincing others, to do something I myself do not quite understand, might be a bit hard. ;) Nevertheless, you are welcome to the Netherlands, even without the free beer.

There are a lot of red lights. Even a 'red light district' ;) > And it is almost impossible to get a coffee in a coffee house. The dutch are addicted to coffee. Coffee IS available in coffee houses. I am not sure about the availability of coffee in coffee shops.

I assume you mean the 'Stedelijk Museum' Never been there, but I know about the painting. He probably visited a coffee shop prior to painting it. Or, like van Gogh, he liked Absinthe. I am not sure about sights in the Netherlands. Most German tourists come to visit the beaches. The other tourists go to Amsterdam and maybe some of the fishing- and cheese-towns. Of course the coffee shops are always very popular with the younger tourists. The Delta-works are also nice to see. As a city, I prefer Rotterdam, which was bombed in the early stages of WWII and rebuild spaciously. My home is in a small village, south of Rotterdam, surrounded bij polders, sea-dykes. -- Maarten Slegtenhorst ----------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION: The information in this electronic mail message is private and confidential, and only intended for the addressee.
