But would he have done it if he couldn't at least get a couple of good press releases out of it? <br /><br />Think this is a great program and glad Gilbert didn't try to keep it bottled up any longer than he has, a timeframe that can be measured in years.

A lot of folks would've lost interest by now. Not Jim Johnston. Jackson needs more like him. The world does too, for that matter.
