Hi Don and Greg,
        Sorry, my email got back to me at the same time your posts
Got through re you not realizing it was Geoff - even though our
Emails entailed more than 2 hrs difference in the times they
were sent...
        All is groovie - I get a bit hairy if I feel a personal friend
Is treated poorly.
        Thanks, Michael
