Welcome:
With humility and awe, I would like to thank Thor: his generosity and sincere desire to help in every way possible reflect uncommon altruism. From those to whom much is given, much is expected. Thank you for your support, I will endeavor to be worthy.
Noting a few editorial marks of my own here are some links to information I have found very useful. It would be my pleasure to answer any questions I can and to help in any tiny way I might.
Deepest gratitude also to Rill, a rare gem even among the stars of Illy players.

In this world you have three companions: one is faithful, the others are treacherous. The latter are friends and possessions; the faithful one is excellence in deeds. Your wealth won't come with you out of your palace; your friend will come, but only as far as the grave. When the day of doom comes to meet you, your friend will say, "I've come this far, but no farther. I will stand a while at your grave." Your deeds alone are faithful: make them your refuge, for they alone will accompany you into the depths of the tomb. -- Rumi Mathnawi V: 1045-1050
