Hello to Don Rosa and all other list-members,

Don, thank you for kindly answering my questions (Fri Oct 17).

Well, in that case I meant Lo$ 10B or Lo$ 11' or whatever is 
the right formula to identify the period 1902-1930, before the 
big break-up. And I saw that break-up as the outcome of a 
gradual process of loosing contact: Hortense and Matilda's 
detest of $crooge's greed grows and $crooge spends years of 
travelling around the world and doing business without his 
sisters. That's what I meant. But maybe this wouldn't make a 
very interesting subject for Lo$-B-stories. I don't know.

Will Sir Quackly's ghost ever turn up again? I liked him a lot, 
too.

Bye,

Michiel Prior.
