My sympathies. If there's one thing I've learned it's that life is fragile. Having a young child makes one recognize that even more. This doesn't apply in Caitlin's case, but people really need to slow down and act with a little more care. It doesn't take much for someone to just be gone. -- Kevin Fishburne Eight Virtues www: http://sales.eightvirtues.com e-mail: sa...@eightvirtues.com phone: (770) 853-6271 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Comprehensive Server Monitoring with Site24x7.
