How sad.
Shame you see it that way. It's quite an achievement, maybe not on the
global scale of things, but it's certainly good exercise!
Congratulations to Geoff: I know he's been after this for a while. His
website (
http://www.geofftech.co.uk/) details all his previous
attempts. I think if someone's achieved their ambition, you shouldn't
knock it.
