If you think about it, it is really funny as I am the one that many LUGgers find offensive as I am not a very tactful person and I call a spade a spade. All that I can say about the Sultan is "There is no accounting for taste" I once owned a Swiss Geneva watch that was actually very plain looking but was 18 carart gold. When people commented on its good looks, I told them that it was gold plated & made by Omega. I am in the middle of a bout with the flu & am missing out on the annual LHSA meeting in No. Carolina but am seriously thinking of starting a local branch in So. California as while there are many members here, they don't like to travel half way across the country as most of the members live either in the South or on the Eastern keyboard. Isn't the Sultan supposed to be the richest man in the world?
