I thought the "clock" started when I first ordered 1.8. I.e. order 1.8 on ??? and you'd better be off of 1.6 by ???+nnn days (or whatever). I will admit that I've never had to work with marketting much, so I don't know the rules about this sort of thing. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
