<< Andy Leskowitz from CSCO systems said <Thanks for enlightening me, jach.> No problem. Looks like could not even think it through on the simple point that was made. Sad. >> Sad indeed. On a hunch, I asked my 6 year old nephew to read your posts figuring that maybe he could understand them. Nope, no clue. Said he'd never read anything so lame in his life. So I showed them to my dog. Nope, no luck there either. Can't say I haven't tried... Andy
