Don't be awed. I know what I know. I make up a lot of it on the fly ;-) I definitely make mistakes. Just 'coz I say it doesn't make it so. And we all learn from our mistakes. Which means if I make a goof like I did above, I should get called on it. And if I'm totally off base or posting on a hunch (which I'll usually qualify), it's often to get someone _else_ to post with a "this is how it really is" comment. I've been learning from the 'Net for 17 years. Great resource. Peace. -- Karsten M. Self <kmself@ix.netcom.com> http://kmself.home.netcom.com/ What Part of "Gestalt" don't you understand?
