Hey Nancy!   
      
    NB> I'd say you might as well quit while you are ahead... you are   
    NB> already more spot on than I'm ever likely to even approach...   
      
   Ye of little faith.  :::tsk, tsk:::   
      
   Anyhow it is too late now since Little Mikey got set loose on this echo.  Just   
   earlier today I caught and fixed one obvious flaw in the latest "bottle of   
   beer(s)" msg generator (See "No more bottles of beer on the wall." versions   
   7f0b96f7-b2d0-46d4-93ab-087d125baaad and the corrected version 0   
   51e93f-1de7-4147-8da0-a94b626f11a9).   
      
   Speaking of UUIDs, what do you think of this latest idea for identification?    
   Apparently there are more unique randomly generated UUIDs than there are   
   particles in the entire universe.  "Billions and billions", as Carl Sagan was   
   fond of saying but in this case we're talking more than trillions and   
   trillions.   
      
    NB> I tend to just get the Macallan and the Glenlivet for myself..   
      
   That works for me.  :-)   
      
    NB> And maybe you'll still have some of the 15yo Glenlivet left...   
      
   Don't bet the farm on it.  My best guess is that for 2019-01-01 I'll go with a   
   fresh bottle, perhaps Oban, but for sure a 12yo Glenlivet.  Also I noticed a   
   "The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve Scotch Whisky" edition that caught my eye   
   back in September.  It was priced about 5 dollars less than the 12yo.  Not a   
   big saving but perhaps worthy of purchase for comparing and contrasting   
   purposes.  Then again I might break down and buy the more expensive Oban as I   
   do recall that one being very tasty way back when.  Also I might totally break   
   with tradition and try one of the single malts from the Glenora Distillery.    
   For some strange reason the "Glen Breton 15 Year Old - Battle of the Glen"   
   calls out to me but is a tad pricey, even moreso than the 15yo Glenlivet.   
      
   We'll see I am sure.   
      
    NB> What is the TUXPOWER echo anyway....?   
      
   Another dead Fidonet echo.  'Tux' is the name of  the Linux penguin (logo).   
      
   Life is good,
