Dear Phil and All, I am not used to indulge in greetings and felicitations, but I want to take this last chance to thanks you all. I can't count the things I have learned from you all... Besides the technicalities that are always welcome, I have really appreciated the positive and constructive mood in the group. I hope to have the opportunity to work with you again, In the meanwhile, my best wishes for all of you.
