GREAT to hear, Sid. Your hard work has obviously been worthwhile, and certainly you will soon reap the benifits of that work. Let's see, it's been seven hours since you posted; hopefully you're well on your way to having terrific memorable evening. You may need one of those dusty old cameras with you to record the festivities, just to jog your memory of the evening's events. <vbg> Let loose, you deserve it!
