Elmer, thanks, it does look good. I just picked up a used-copy of it off of amazon. OT Here's a weird story for you, that I'm still just shaking my head over. During an interview today, a candidate (with relevant background experience) out of the clear blue volunteered to show me a design spec from his former company. He said he could show me a design spec. Yikes, to even suggest something like that, is really bad because our co could have used the competitive information to our advantage, if we accepted it. I said to him, no, you can't do that. He totally missed my point, he said, "I can, I have it at home." He completely missed my point! I said, no, you can't show it, you can't do that, that belongs to the company, you should return it to them. He still didn't get it, I'm not kidding. I finally spelled it out and told him it's not right, it's just not done, and again told him he should return the spec. It blows me away someone could even suggest doing something like that. Isn't it really bizarre? (He obviously didn't get the position.) Regards, Amy J
