Vance -

   Then I went on to say that I welcome *all* questions.  I did not
emphasis what I will now, that being that *no question relating to the
guidelines of this listserve should not be asked!*  My gripe is not that
simple questions are asked, but that many more are *not* asked.  With
sadness, I see too many questions, elementary to complex, that are not
answered here.

   There is an axiom that goes something as this, "It is in giving that we
find ourself."  Add to that the one about, "If everyone lit one candle, how
bright the world would be" and then think how illuminating would be our
group to ourselves and to others!  :-)
