Of course. I obviously didn't expect anything to be changed through
this half-humorous / half-serious conversation, except to better measure

No matter what you think about me or my ideas, I remain a big admirer of

My apologies for forgetting to turn my signature off, I didn't know that

Works for me! (Except with 802.11n, but that's a whole nother rant.)
