Saw this on MSW and just want to say congrats to John Mel also. So cool to see the Freeline board behind Peter in the group photo. 8)

Met John briefly at the World's, a thorough gentleman, could'nt speak more highly of the man, some of it surely rubbed off on Peter & with that I'll offer my congrats to the Mel family.
Cheers Wolruss
