Selectivity my dear! :)
OK, I'm going to update my PGN with "El Chinito, A1600".

Yes I regret it very much. I don't want to give the impression that for me this
event has no importance.
At one point I thought I would come, for several reasons. First I could have
come with a faster computer, my P4-1.6GHz notebook. Second I have some hardware
I have ordered to pick up in Paris (at a store named Surcouf). And last but not
least there is the pleasure to see all my friends at the event.
But it would not have been reasonable because I have too much work here at this
time.
