True, but as I never PMed anyone except in reply, I just didn't think of it. (A number of posts here always look a lot like they should be PMd!)

yea I suggested that because you might get a faster response from him...

Nope, don't want to know about complex matrices or logical probabilities. Not even how to square a circle.

I was wondering if you knew the name of the fort or castle like building you show in your avatar?

I have an old print of the same building, and always wondered what it is. (Other than model for a chess rook.)

It a sketch of my Alma Mater, Hunter High School.

The former armory, located on 94^th Street and Park Avenue in Manhattan, was also featured as the urban castle in the Terry Gilliam movie The Fisher King.

A lot of memories of that place.

OK, Ganch, many thanks.

I doubt what I have would be for your old HS.

But maybe the armory, it came from the NYC area.
