I didn't subscribe but instead saw the post using the new post search

Dreaming of at least spring time now
Hi GrainBrain,

Thanks for your pleasant reply. I looked at my profile, and your mention did appear. So if I may reciprocate in the same way, @GrainBrain, I did see your recent PM to me. I appreciated it but it takes me a while to respond to PMs.

I have on previous occasions excused my delay in posting or replying to PMs, so if I may post here to put it on the record, I was planning to reply when I first saw your posts, but I got caught up with posting more immediately to several various threads. I usually try to post promptly on the Forums because they proceed so quickly, but I carfully compose and savor my PM's.
