Dear Dave
A pity. I thought you were the first with the news and the pics like Reuters. A lot of the time I am the tail ender* on the e mails. I think this is to do with time differences.
Not long left if Strelets are to meet the Sept 2006 release date.

* tail enders in cricket are the last (usually worst) batsmen in the innings. There must be something similar in baseball.

Would also be the last to hit. Either 8th or 9th depending if the designated hitter rule is being used.

I was the "Tail Ender" in my school days which sadly meant, I was the last one chosen - by both teams. I was always permanently planted out of the way in right field where there was no action!

I "played" Lacrosse but for 99.99% of the games from the far end of the bench. That doesn't take away from the fact that I loved the game and still do !
