I almost am, but the one I requested, I've spent a lot of thought and
time wondering what using this new call will be like, and when you
guys all hear it, if it goes through, you'll understand why I like it

I only put the one call in the first field, since if I don't get that
one, then I don't wish to change my call.
thanks, Howard, particularly.
