Whoops. I just did the same thing... responded without reading the entire thread. If I would have known this was such a heated thread, I would have preferred to stay out of it. I hope nobody is offended anymore. I would like to take this time to state my appreciation for all the helpful hints from everyone in the past years. I am normally just a non-participating reader/bystander on this list, but enjoy very much reading and learning from it every day.
