Many thanks.  Sure brings back the memories.  Only 10 days before your 
feat, 12/2/91, I had joined Marble (all-NeXT), and I very well remember 
this new thing at CERN/SLAC called the World Wide Web.  Silly me, I 
thought it would never grow.  I thought it would never scale because 
initially I had the impression all links had to be bidirectional.  How 
wrong I was!
