Wendy the Mysterious,

Do you think that by responding to this thread, and flattering me about my
searching skills, and making claims about "just about everyone" having
responded to this inquiry before in ABPO (which is not archived and thus
cannot be checked), you can escape notice that you did not really introduce
yourself here? grin

Well, your lack of introduction did not escape my notice ... at least not
for long. Did the "just about everyone" in ABPO replies include you, or is
Wendy's orchid background a secret? I looked in the thread that had
originally got my attention, and sure enough your post to this thread is
enigmatic as well

:-)

Even if you have responded to this type of inquiry in the past, maybe
something has changed in the meantime? a new greatest achievement perhaps?

Hi Joanna, I am truly impressed with your searching abilities.
I tried to do one on Google but I get nothing?
Kye started this in ABPO & just about everyone in the group replied.
Do you use the 'advanced search' feature?
What do you type in other than the News Group.
