Hey Ken-
Thanks very much for the info and for the attachment.
I appreciate it.
Take care and good fishing.
And also my thanks to everyone on the list who took
the time to reply. Sorry for sending so many single
posts, probably should have read thru all the mail and
sent just one.
Never had a question for the list that someone didn't
have a good answer for.

The River-
You passers-by, who share my journey,
You move and change,I move and am the same;
You move and are gone, I move and remain.
