OK, back from the hike, and I have GOOD NEWS! The
wonderful folks at ITTVIS have offered to provide
valuable prizes for our mystery visitor, IF we can identify
him or her. So, the lucky winner (an astronomer at the University
of Glasgow, to judge from the URL) will get the following
prizes:

1. A free copy of IDL Programming Techniques
2. An IDL coffee carafe
3. An IDL jump drive (of undetermined capacity)
4. An IDL T-shirt signed by the entire IDL team (please
mention your size when you report your identity)
5. Three hours of free IDL consulting via e-mail.

So, who are you? Do any of you astronomy types know
of a colleague at Glasgow University who might qualify?
We can even do this anonymously if accepting prizes from
commercial companies will compromise your integrity with
your colleagues or if you prefer not to have your picture
splashed all over web-dom. :-)

Let me know.

Cheers,

David
