Oh, ok, I hear what you're saying now. I don't have that capability so
I didn't know it exists. I'm on dialup. I'm using the really old
version that they almost canned for poverty level users like me a few
years ago. I'll shut up now. It also helps make a ton of sense about
more than a few threads that never made sense in the past. #ThankYou
for that! :)
