Hi Ivan...

Thanks for the analogy correction, I LMFAO!!! 8-)

I regretted posting the email the minute I clicked the send button...
It was the end of a long and stressful day and I'd just finished watching an
hour of bad late night news, I hopped on the net and decided to peruse this
forum to take my mind off things and the rest is cyber-history...

I apologise to you and all offended for "shooting" my mouth off. ;-)

Sincerely
Alfonso Baz
