Harvey, recognition by people who know what they're looking at is 
pretty satisfying.
If we were both at that same gallery in Seattle, I'm wondering if 
we've met. I can't seem to remember anyone anymore...
The internet has brought a lot of interesting people I thought had 
disappeared back into communication, it was wonderful to have Arnold 
Gassan in discussions on the Leben list before he died.
Like you, I have no problem with any of these issues for my commercial 
work, things seem pretty clear there.
