Right -- God only knows the number of things were filtered out to leave me with filtered water. What's "filtered" in this case is what was passed through, not what was removed. I hadn't even thought about "filtered" as meaning the input to the filtering process until Tom mentioned it, but on a different day, in a different mood, it might also be what I assumed was meant by "number filtered". It's kinda hard to imagine a *more* ambiguous term. -Kevin
