   I'd say you might as well quit while you are ahead... you are already   
   more spot on than I'm ever likely to even approach...  ;)   
      
    NB>> I still have a smidge of the leftover Glenmorangie   
      
    MK> I don't recall the last time I had any but offhand am guessing at

   This was left from the tasting at the Cooking Echo... I don't think I   
   ever bought any for myself...  I was given some Glenfiddich once, but I   
   tend to just get the Macallan and the Glenlivet for myself..  :)   
      
    MK> Same with Oban which I spied a bottle of when purchasing the 15yo   
    MK> Glenlivet.  That might be something worth reinvestigating on   
    MK> 2019-01-01 but am sure I will have to plan ahead for ... say   
    MK> September-ish again.    
      
   And maybe you'll still have some of the 15yo Glenlivet left...  :)   
      
    MK> 'datediff' is a little bash script I wrote just for the occasion as a   
    MK> companion to the "bottles of beer" subject generator.  It now appears   
    MK> to have evolved into an offline Fidonet "bottles of beer" msg   
    MK> generator for Little Mikey.  So far it has created two test msg's   
    MK> posted in the TUXPOWER echo and might see some airtime here in   
    MK> ASIAN_LINK come 2018-09-24, just in time for the 2019-01-01 "bottles   
    MK> of beer" countdown ... maybe.  Maybe we'll think up something better   
    MK> and perhaps less annoying?  ;-)    
      
   Perhaps...  :)  What is the TUXPOWER echo anyway....?
