Oh yes, the workshop still has the lights on. Spend an average of 6 to 8 hrs a day working presently on the sino japanese portion of the theater. Up at 1am to 2am work until 6am or 7am, take a power nap, do household/yardwork chores, work a little more on cfs3, another power nap, watch some movies or read, bed by 8pm. Its nice to be retired. :)


Its great when the team gets some feedback and thanks for their efforts and a response to their postings.
