    <p>I have a memory of Kevin saying he uses some kind of database
      (not sure what format/kind) of all the quotes he's been posting
      over the years, and it produces a new one each day - or something
      like that. </p>
    <p>There was a time in recent years when he lost access to it for a
      few days, so we were without quotes for a couple of days. He
      emailed about it at the time.</p>
    <p>Cheers</p>
    <p>Claire<br>

                you know</div>
              <div>you haven't used before? Do you compile a list of
                emails in a big batch and send them out day by day?</div>

              <div>I can't recall the last time we actually saw a post

                will</div>
              <div>reply.  Here's hoping he will, as it would be cool to
