Obviously, I found yours. We're both planning on going to build houses, so must go to the same church. I can tell from reading that we have a lot in common, but I don't know who you are. As a matter fact, you are the only other person I know who even bothered to mention Chrome and how amazing it really is. Why didn't someone else think about sandboxing apps appropriately so they didn't use a disproportionate amount fo system resources w/o ever returning them. Hit me back and lets talk sometime. Henry =) Hey Matt,

I did get to watch the impressive fireworks in my rearview mirror as I was driving out of Tucson last night though. I hope Aaron got some shots of the lightning.
