Leigh says that the financing should be all worked out in just a few more years. After that, he predicts checks (or cheques in your language) will be cut no later than two to four years following. In the meantime he is meticulously recording our pay-in-arrears (including benefits reimbursements) in anticipation of that happy day.<br /><br />Eve, the statue of St. Pat is standing on the serpents in question. Two particularly aggrieved ones, if memory serves me correctly, though they dare not strike.<br /><br />Thanks, R.T., and yes, that is the dueling scene we discussed.

Nice one. So this is the story about a duel that you and I discussed in e-mails a year or so back. At the time, my concern was both of us submitting a duel story at the same time to AHMM. Turns out yours got published in EQMM and mine in an anthology.<br />Nice work, keep them coming.R.T.
