    New kid in town from Romania

    Just kidding about “kid”, of course - as I’m already 55, but still preserving (I hope) the creative approach of the childhood. I’ve signed in a few months ago on this impressive forum, and now I think I’m about ready for the active phase of posting, after a long period of non-passive “sitting on...
