Hello Thomas,
Thank you for your comments and thoughts. I'm still trying to understand
basic programming and I see now that I'm mixing things up.
I also wanted to thank you for taking the time to put the code up on gist,
in order to give me a clear example of what you are talking about. I very
much appreciate it.
Cheers,
Mike
