In previous email, "hit" was changed by software from my attempt at typing "shot." I shouldn't complain: the software may have saved me from the embarrassment of posting an obscenity.

A word of caution or encouragement, perhaps: comparing oneself to Lluis can be hard on one's ego. Use such comparison wisely.

Have you ever been to the Main Street Roasting Company in Redwood City? The fellow there, Bob Baldwin, is a master roaster and a photographer. I believe he and Peet learned together. He is also a photo nerd and will spend all the time in the world talking gear. Active in the PA Camera club. You may want to stop by some time. Tell him Bob sent you :-) Best, Bob Sent from my iPad On Nov 9, 2012, at 8:26 PM, Herbert Kanner <kanner at acm.org> wrote: > Being a coffee nut, I travel twenty miles about once a month to buy > Sumatra coffee beans.
