You mean to tell me that we now need a tertiary alternative to the alternative to the serious list? Jumpin' Jehosophat! Holy Stromboli! Good grief! I got a boatload of serious here everyday, and even though I can't get a beer out of this machine (well almost, see http://www.virtualbeer.com/home/vb.html ), I gotta say that for the relief I get here, and the knowledge that when I need some serious support to a technical question I can depend on it here, 'I love you, maa-aan' [this is a generic 'maa-aan' intended to apply to all denizens, not specifically Ken, more a plaintive term of endearment for y'all]. I'm gonna post the charter for those that didn't read it the first time. _______________________________________________ Dan Becker, Exec. Dir.
