("Better to remain silent and let others doubt your wisdom..."). Rent a brain, Doug. One should not place too much trust in mass-mkt mags, but one can certainly use them as a jumping off place to start searching for more reliable information. Some even include specific references to help you get started (I wish more of them did). Thanks to David for his posting, and if he or anyone else has more info from non mass-mkt sources, so much the better. - Phil prs@oliveb.UUCP (Phil Stephens) {really oliven} or, if that fails: {get to 'nike' somehow, then}!oliveb!prs Mail welcome, but my mailer seldom cooperates when I try to reply.
