Thanks Dennis,

Although I can't take credit for for phrase. I believe it comes from a New Testament story about how the rich temple members would try to make a lot of clanking noises with their collection offerings so that everyone would think they were very generous. Then a woman in some raggedy clothing came along and dropped a couple nearly worthless tin or copper coins in.....and Haysoos remarked that her offering was more valuable than everyone elses because she gave all she had.

Shot out to all the former Presbyterians in da house! <gg>
