Hello Michael, Apologies, I guess I was irritated that my original post, with the title above and written a few weeks ago, was immediately hijacked back then and my original point was lost. Even Theo responded, not to my point but to the hijack, which was a rather ignorant question.
Such is life, others wrote similar emails to my original one so it in the grand scheme of things it does not matter... Bill --------------------------------------------- William J.

Sorry for topic drift; I had intended to express thanks for the product and to ask some questions (and raise some points) that had been on my mind for a long time. Michael
