Actually Vic, I was referring to the FA 300/4.5. I had meant that a a side msg to Ken, not to the list. It would have made more sense if I had copied the original msg, and it would have made even more sense if I had sent it just to Ken as I intended. I hit the wrong button. But thanks for your comment. It is late, I've spent too much time on web design and otherwise staring at the computer the last few days.
