To Everyone:

Thank you all for the kind words about Pat. My Japanese wife told me today that she had discovered this forum thread about Pat. As you now know, Pat has an older brother, Chip, and myself who is his younger brother. Pat has always been a humble person by nature, and even these days he still has not gotten up to speed with the internet and e-mail and all of the benefits. So, anyone, please feel free to pass on any messages to Pat through either Chip or myself, or just post herein and we will let him know. Chip lives close-by Pat and sees him often and I call Pat from Japan every few weeks. If you want to mail Pat directly, just send me an e-mail and I'll reply with his address. But I warn you, Pat shamefully admits he is painfully slow at writing back. Still, he loves to hear from his friends and fans.

With kindest regards - Dave Hennen
