Glad to hear Alan is doing well. I thought he might  have become the 
second victim of "Gumperson's Disease." <grin>
I once worked with his first band at Mon Vue in the late 50's for a 
short time until the Local 20 brass told me not to since they were not 
union.
For an architech he is a pretty fair slush-pumper.
