So... as to the above "Good G> jobs never last..." - that is simply not true. :-) Same here. While all jobs I have had over the years have their pros/cons, none were horrible. I have worked for a total of (5) professional organizations in my career, with my current one being the longest so far (22 years and counting). I have held many different roles in each of the organizations - but all have been technical/engineering related. - Mark ÿÿÿ --- WWIVToss v.1.52 * Origin: http://www.weather-station.org * Bel Air, MD -USA (21:1/132.0) .
