Well, let's face it, sometimes we all can lose track of who said what and what he/she meant by whatever it was we think he/she may have said he/she said in a previous post - even when we have it written down right in our faces. And I have to add that I was not trying to diss Colin, just point out where he erred. Truth is, not many have done as much for this ng as Colin has, he's entitled to one or two, IMHO. Could happen to anybody.

I am not an artist. I have no graphic talents whatsoever. Give me a felt-tip marker and paper, and I will be hard pressed to produce valid dots. But.. I sure do enjoy this ng. Like the Hollywood incarnation of Salieri, I may not be able to do it, but I can sure appreciate the hell out of it. Alan
