It's nice to see there are actually some folks out there who can (almost) see where I am coming from. The general response of the community is quite surprising. I was expecting much different responses based on the level of support specific questions receive when submitted.
My system is working 100% error free in the 'lab' environment, so hopefully you are correct in your assumption that I have achieved success. I have heard everyone LOUD and CLEAR. Unless it's broken or not working as expected... don't come here looking for advice and mentoring!
