This was very popular at the YAPP&RS conference, and caused many laughs. Poor Pope! However when I returned home there was a gif file that you had sent which I could not download and blocked my mailbox. The server had to trash all the messages, so I missed the delights that the file might have been. I have no idea why I couldn't download it, but please let me know what I missed.??!!
