Best news of 2008 to date

Steve Young's brother Hank has written to say that Steve is being discharged from the hospital today.

That's all the information I have, but I assume that we will be hearing from Steve himself or other members of the family about when and where we can see him, talk to him, visit him.

For now, this news is enough.
