Well that's it everyone, once again it has been great to be able to learn from you guys and teach you knowledge (like calligraphy). This is Andrew Whittle, knowledge seeker, officially signing off with a last quote (sorry I couldn't help myself):"A day may come when the knowledge of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the knowledge of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we learn! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you learn, Men of the West!"
