Obviously I have touched a great many sols on various lists and web sites, 
unfortunately if I were to compose a thank you message to all of them it 
might take me part way to my next birthday. Never the less understand I do 
appreciate everybody's kind words and good wishes. Besides you folks want me 
to pick up on doing some tutorials ETC, at least I believe that's the case.
