thats pretty neat.. i liked that he said (or she, i forget which one said it) that 'hey, theres 168 hours in a week, why dwell on the 15 you are hooked to a machine) Very true, and even if it's more, it's best to focus on the 'other' hours.... right  ;)

Nice to hear stories such as that and especially since we live in the same county! No I don't know them, but loved to meet them some day!
