Can't believe that on December 1 1989 I was standing under a tree at our offices wondering what the hell I was doing standing outside a century old building, never realizing for a second that I'd just found my life's work.

That tree is still here and so am I.*  :smile:

We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Congratulations and I hope you've enjoyed every day of it. :)
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.

Hey-you look good bald! Kinda Like Peter Lorre in MAD LOVE. or Kojak with glasses. Or the alien in FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE SPACE MONSTER!

Thats a good thing! I look-and about the same height-as cousin Itt.

Damn. I came in here hoping "28 Years a Film Archivist" was a sequel to "28 Weeks Later." But congrats, Trevor!

Nah, no one running around here on fire: at least not yet.  :wink:

Thanks Burgo: hope you and your family are doing well.  :smile:
