Dear Rik, I think I hurt you some where in the process. Could you be a bit detailed. I want to know the formalities in this group.
Who's who, etc.so as to be myself comfortable pl. Than may give a real welcome into this group.

Dear Mohan, This comment is an example of bottom posting, which I had never absorbed the formality about either until now. Sorry for that. Your response was an example top posting.
