Whether you can get away with that depends on the age of the wet ram, I have reached that age (81) where I can recall stuff I did in the '60's, but not what, if anything, I had for breakfast for breakfast this morning, it takes 2 to 3 cups of caffiene before I can claim to even be awake. That means 2 more before I'm safe around machinery. :) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
