oops - some of the Spooks folks might say "isn't this supposed to be all
about numbers tations and affilated stuff?" Then again so what? Hah!
Richard, the name doesn't ring a bell, I haven't been with CIDX that long.
I'll mention him in my next column though - got any messages for him?
Anyway CIDX would love to have you back I'm sure!
