[Heeplist] Stephen Fontaine!

Boris "The Cannibal" Schnitzer is actually an Israeli, Rick. Manfred is
German. Both are fantastic guys whom I have had the pleasure of meeting a
number of, though not enough, times. Tapio, whom I have also met a goodly
few times,  is also a fantastic guy. I'm sure all their pinkies contain
large amounts of class. Actually I know they do. "Diamond geezers" as my mad
Italian friend is wont to say :-)

Cheers,

Pete

Yes, I take that back, the two German guys who apparently formed this site,
Boris Shnitzer & Manfred Helwig, probably have more class in their pinkies
than YOU ever will.
