an interesting challenge

[René Micout]

Eric was my neighbor (his office was at 780 meters [Google Earth] of my home) and yet we had never met...
I was a big "fan" since the publication of his book/CD "Tout sur Hypercard". We exchanged by mail, often in french (especially about "Guides Picker" that I use everyday...), but in english on the forum...
Time passes...
