Gottfried,

No! I haven't been through them all as yet. Just quickly glanced over this one. Looks like a bunch of "busy beavers" have been at work here.

Good. I'll go look for it. BTW, I think I figured out why my TV came on in the middle of the night making me think a space ship was landing on my house - get this....

I had been up late watching a video sent by Omega on how to use trade station. I accidently went to sleep that night with the TV on, set to channel 3, video off, but the Omega video was still in the VCR. All was quiet. No problem.

The next morning I noticed the cardboard video box cover had been smashed. Didn't think much about it at the time. Next to the video box cover was my TV remote. After thinking about this for a while, I theorized that in the middle of the night, my cat must have jumped up on the end table and "tap danced" on my TV remote - thereby changing the channel from 3 to whatever channel had the space station landing show. My cat has walked across my fax/phone several times in the past, and tap danced long enough to have gotten a dial tone..

The only thing I'm wondering now is - did my cat do this on purpose to stir up trouble for me and the dogs while my wife was out of town? <g>
