Thanks for the confirmation, Jim. The orders were placed last night. Let me thank you for the education you are providing here on the thread. My international finance/arbitrage classes were a long time ago...on an island far away....UH business school was filled with HK Chinese...amazed me how these 98 lb. 23 year-old-men and women...10th generation merchants... could slice through the intenational finance/economics case studies like a knife through butter...Me? a trained and experienced killer...a 43-year-old LtCol combat engineer, I was proud but outclassed in that venue. Fortunately, in the words of C.S. Lewis: "The first step toward humility is to realize that one is proud."...humbled, I learned volumes listening to their quiet ways and parsimonious use of words to describe the intracacies of their craft. I remain, under God, . . . jj
