And let me say I didn't intend you (or anyone else) to think that I
thought your response was "uppity" or "not helpful".  It was neither.

There are a continuum of writing styles, from the extremely terse to the
extremely verbose.  I tend to be at the terse end of the spectrum which,
I realize, tends to make me seem a bit "unforgiving".  Sorry, but that's
the way I am, I *AINT* changing.  Been that way for 50 years, can't teach
a new dog old tricks... :=) :-) ;-) B-)
