LOL! You are right, we could go all day. But I am going to do one more and be annoying. Nothing is broken yet, because aptitude has not begun the install. ;) > and nobody calls me Mr... :) Yes sir! ;) I never know how to refer to people that I do not personally know, so I tend to default to formal titles.
