[From Rick Marken (01.02.28.0900)]
Yes, folks! Just 55 short years ago the world was blessed
(or cursed, depending on which side of the "I see you have
chosen" chasm you fall on) with the birth of me.
Happy Birthday Rick,
I wish you all the best. I send you the song "keep on rocking in a free
world" in a direct mail. I hope it fits your taste and age 
Best regards
Stefan
