Thanks Laura for that tip. I'll give it a try. I'm glad you're back on the list and don't let flamers on or off list faze you! You're doing a great job! Hey, how about that Pk? Are you going to try for one when it comes out? If you get one before I do, I'd love to hear your evaluation of it. Write me offlist if you like about this or any comments you might not want to crowd the list.
