Now, generallly I don't like to tack a one-line "me too" type of reply onto a 
posting from someone else, but this one is too good to let slide by.  The above
is brilliant.  Perhaps it could use a bit of cleaning up, but one of the folks
at CBM that reads this group should send this copy to the Marketing department.
It is head and shoulders above the ads we've seem so far, and says exactly what
needs to be said.  Well said, David.
