Hi, Sonny, Just wanted to say HI!!! Doesn't sound like you had such a great day today. I was hoping that stock of ours would go up since everything else was down today. Ok one of my cheapo stocks was up, thats it. I guess we better listen to Tech Wiz More often he's got a pretty good right to wrong ratio going. Im just afraid to ask sometimes, since I may not want to hear the answer I'll get. <gg> Hope you have a better evening. Take Care Ann
