I know what you're saying. I understand and I'm the same. I've done
some things that could be recognised but even in this group, I wouldn't say
what it was that I did in a newsgroup. It's nothing sensational that I feel
should be said, but I do feel priveledged to have done it. And that puts a
smile on my face. :)
It's my only real accomplishment in this world.

I feel for you Jim, because, trust me, I DO understand. The last eight
years for me have somewhat aged me beyond my years. (Well, you might not
think so if you looked at me, but inside, I don't feel good anymore, and
feel really 'old').
