Thanks for that! I hope others are enjoying it as much as I did. And
to think, it might not even have seen the light of day! (That bit
about the Mason Absolution Field being projected out of the back of
Perry's head, causing persons in the spectator gallery to stand up and
confess, makes me chuckle just thinking about it!)
