Re: 40 shades of green ...

Moin Walle,

I think DHPM stands for Department of Health Policy and Management, at least that's what google says..... about the pipes I wrote you. You call it Irish-green but to my opinion it's not racing green.....
Again you are walking on the border of insanety and a genius..... Respekt!
