Your reply was a bit cryptic, as you maybe thought of mine. Since
$Remote was te part that had fallen away, I thought you had found it.
And about learning, that goes both ways. And in my experience four
eyes see four times what two eyes see.

"Zonder hoop kun je niet leven
Zonder leven is er geen hoop
Het eeuwige dilemma
Zeker als je hoop moet vernietigen om te kunnen overleven!"
