No I didn't, Erich....it's very strange, but I was thinking about Herr Fries just this morning before logging on to the forum. It gives me an excuse to post this picture of Peter Spoden and Otto Fries again.....



That day at Wendover in March '06 was the most enjoyable 'meeting with veterans' I've ever had the privilege to experience.

And why I didn't ask him that most obvious question just goes to show how even (semi-) serious researchers can be overawed when in the presence of the 'real thing'.....
