"Mother-hen"??? sigh, that wasn't the image I was going for :)
I've got pictures of some, but not all, who were there. I'll post them
to the OT list some time over the weekend (hey, I have a cat who was
alone for a week who hasn't left me alone for a minute, I need to make
it up to him for abandoning him. He already feels abandoned by the
others who died in the past year)
for those who aren't on the OT list, you can join by sending an email
to oracle-l-ot-subscribe_at_yahoogroups.com Be prepared for a lot of
minutia as well as caring from a lot of people. And a LOT of email
(yes, you can set it to read on the web or digest)
