Hi Sebastian,

now that you say it -- yes, it seems we both choose the same quote :D
(Really, I didn't copy you. I've read it somewhere else a while ago
and adopted it because I liked it. But really, you didn't read
hundreds of quote books just to suddenly stumble on Franklin's quote,
did you?)

But another thing: Do you still need participating relays for TTTT?
