Paul, personally, I'm busy just now, which is why I didn't answer your first post.
That said, the tone of your initial questions combined with your answer to a levelheaded request for clarification take me out of list skimming. Jay appointed himself to answer you. As did everybody else who answered (or not). I appointed myself to do Road Node 101 'cause nobody has to invite me to my own party. Same for you. Do I hear antagonism in your tone? I'd like to hear you talk about that. Jan -- "It isn't done alone. Pay more." http://groups.yahoo.com/group/roadnode101/ - education http://fauxpress.blogspot.com - motion http://blog.urbanartadventures.com - sound http://vlogpresskit.blogspot.com - media http://the-hold.blogspot.com - literature .
