I have not yet recived all the pieces to this one yet, but I am anxious for the remaining few so I can see just what this one does! I wouldn't gripe about anything being sent through the net (even X-rated pictures!). I have recieved many usefull and helpfull items. As a matter of fact, the only thing that gets up me (esp. in source news groups) is extensive arguing. So, before I get annoyed at myself, I will be off.
