Sheesh. It's amazing what sets some people off. I wasn't going to reply to his ill-mannered flame (although I did in EMail :-), but I just had to after seeing the above. Why do some people have to interpret everything so seriously, especially when it was blatantly obvious that the first paragraph of my follow-up was meant to be taken humorously? You'd think the first two words of the next paragraph, "But seriously..." would kinda clue him in on that. Excuse the wasted bandwidth....it's rare from me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tony Poole Traverse City, MI USA EMail:tony@irie.ais.org ____________________________________________________________________________
