Fast forward to today and i already have an email correspondence with Gary, who maintains the site and it looks like both parties are glad that we have made contact. i can't explain it really but i felt rather lighthearted after having had short conversations with him. Sure, sure it's not like i recently discovered that there's life outside the Milky Way or that this drastically changes my way of life, but it's simply the obvious fact and realization that there are people who share my name and we, in one way or another, belong to the same family tree.
The more you know, the more you don't know. That applies to probable "distant" relatives as well.
