Haha, too funny...We visited Wheaton in MA when looking at schools for my daughter so thought we may have had a "small world" event in the making. Well at least I know you went through 4 years of real winter up there. It is flat there though as you say, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio make for a long car trip when going from NY to Minnesota!

Geology, yes, should you not be some rich guy traveling the world like someone we both know, finding oil??? Or at least, finding some cool rocks to use for inlays on my guitar?
