Hi Michael.
Glad to see you've healed at the broken places (Hemingway)!
Columbo's first name is surely "Christopher", don't you think? With both its theological symbolism, and the suggestion that here is the true founder of America? :)
Err, beats me, Kim. No, not healed yet. I am learning to type left handed until allowed to use my right arm, currently in a sling and a splint.
