Hi Gene, Got the memo but other needs have taken precedence.. such as bringing home the bacon etc. Ya know... not everyone has the "luxury" of retirement yet.. ;-) Seriously, I thought that your lathe was broke and you needed the belt and pulleys to fix it! That would create a catch-22 situation if you had to machine the pulleys for the machine you needed to repair... although perhaps a crank could be fitted.. ;-) Dave --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
