Matthew, I repeat - if you want help, please provide _data_ so that people who are interested enough to want to help, can start doing so. All you've done so far is rant. And yes, I'm very well aware of that particular webpage, and that sentence. I use it myself quite frequently. So again, where is the data? What have you done to help us help you figure out what is going on? James C.
