This fills me with such satisfaction, curiosity and delight.  Bert was an amazing man, and one of my dearest friends.  His was a technical opinion I sought, trusted and relied upon, because it was always forthcoming, considered and sane.  So I am already placing a weight on your shoulders Vanessa, one that my inner voice tells me you will be able to bear with grace and wisdom.

Welcome, and thanks for bringing such an illuminating, surprising and delightful light into the world.
