Hi Charles Not sure if you remember me, we had discussed Lisbon earlier. There was an article in the Advance newspaper this past week about Lisbon and so much of the information was false or misleading. I am in the process of writing to the editor to ask that before articles of history are printed to check references and data. Years from now someone will pick up that paper and take the info as fact. Did you see the article.
