Well, to pass on/remind you of the words of Dylan that I kept reminding myself of when I lit out for the territories with my knapsack on my back: Leave your stepping stones behind now Something it calls for you Forget the dead you've left they will not follow you ...just grab a St. Christopher and tell him to hang on ;) Oh, and by the way, Brian is not mocking you. Brian has given you a great short little rundown on what you'll find there. Pretty accurate indeed (when he's not being facetious ;) ). Cheers mate Malcs
