Hello. Well yes in my spare time from audio engineering I run a little company called Google. I'm not quitting my day job or anything.

Don't hate me for posting. I got a kick out of it. Smiled when I saw it and thought of you.

Hello. No sweat sunburst79, that's pretty funny. I do wonder what the background is on why they chose that name. The one you do see all the time on the net (and elsewhere I suppose) is a contraction of frozen yogurt, froyo or fro-yo.

Nah, it comes from Florence Griffith Joyner's nickname at the Seoul Olympics 1988
