To Phil who responded to you: If you are saying this was a stupid question, count how many times you have asked a question someone already knew the answer to, and reconsider your judgement. Just because you may have already learned something does not mean that it is then stupid for anyone else to learn it. If everyone on the net tries to help a little rather than mock someone trying to learn, we can have most of our questions answered. If you did not have intentions of ridicule, please disregard the above note and enlighten us as to the meaning of your wit.
