Steve:

Well, I give you an A minus.

I could be harsher, but you know how old professors get softer in the later 
years.  (grin)

I'm going to give the contest a try;   I know I won't win from all the way 
out here in Colorado, but it'll be fun trying.

I do have to take a break this afternoon to work with the BARC Juniors youth 
club, since the XYL and I are elmering the kids, but other than that, it's 
cold and cloudy here, so a good contest week-end.

Seeya in the contest!
